Dave Hole, Australia’s premier internationally successful bluesman and highly acclaimed slide guitar virtuoso, is playing a rare run of Victorian shows this month.
Widely regarded as one of the all-time greats, Dave Hole’s playing is infused with the spirit of legends like Elmore James, Duane Allman and Johnny Winter. His fans have included the late Gary Moore, Metallica’s lead guitarist Kirk Hammett.
He has released 10 albums, and has headlined festivals in America, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Holland, France, England, Russia and Switzerland.
“He’s an amazing Australian slide guitar player. When I listen to him it sounds like he’s doing a hybrid picking and sliding thing, but I saw some footage of him and he’s sliding all the notes. He plays so fast, and his phrasing, intonation and tone are perfect.” – KIRK HAMMETT of METALLICA in “GUITAR WORLD”, USA
