Årets Guitarpeople's Prize tilldelas...

Världsmusiker tilldelas svenskt gitarrpris!

Årets Guitarpeople's Prize tilldelas amerikansk världsartist samt en stilbildande svensk kompositör.

"Guitarpeople's Prize 2012" tilldelas DAVID LINDLEY!

Under snart 50 år har David Lindley (US) verkat i gitarrmusikens tjänst med sitt alldeles egna och direkt igenkännbara sound som förgyllt otaliga stjärnartisters verk, både på turné och i studion. Allra mest välkänd är han som Jackson Brownes följeslagare från 70-talet och framåt men på meritlistan finns studioarbete med  Ry Cooder,  Bob Dylan, Rod Stewart, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor , Warren Zevon, Dolly Parton och många, många andra. Som egen bandledare släppte han fanastiska album med El Rayo-X under åttiotalet. 

Motivering: "Med ett lekfullt  musikaliskt uttryck och en total känslomässig närvaro har Lindley förtrollat sin publik in i musikens allra innersta rum med sitt magiska slidespel. En folkmusiker och världsmusiker  med stor integritet och känsla."

"Guitarpeople's Prize: Up and Coming 2012" tilldelas RICHARD KRANTZ!

I kategorin "Up and Coming" tilldelas Richard Krantz "Guitarpeople´s Prize" med motiveringen att han ”med sina stämningsfulla och unika kompositioner i smakfulla arrangemang tar gitarrmusiken in i nya sammanhang med sitt säregna instrumentala spel".

Prisutdelningen äger rum på Guitarpeople's Prize-galan på Rival i Stockholm den 30e september 2012!
