Description du concert
Brett Wood is an internationally-respected guitarist, singer and songwriter with a vast array of studio and live performance credits.
Having picked up a guitar at the age of 14, by his late teens Wood was taken under the wing of guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel. This began a lifelong friendship and resulted in Wood making many guest appearances during Tommy’s many shows throughout the USA and Australia. Tommy will appear as a guest artist on Wood’s upcoming solo album.
Brett’s singular talent and work ethic has seen him established as a fixture in the session scene spanning multiple decades in Australia with many of the country’s leading music acts (Pete Murray, Electric Mary, Jason Singh (Taxiride), Graeme Connors, Bonnie Anderson, Felicity Urquhart, Lee Kernaghan and Tania Kernaghan, James Blundell, Carter and Carter, Vanessa Amorosi and Jimmy Cupples.
For over 15 years Wood has been the lead guitarist and creative contributor for Australian pop/rock favourite Pete Murray, and tours globally with hard rock act, Electric Mary.
After decades of working alongside many exciting projects, and returning to his blues roots, Wood is excited to be releasing his own highly-anticipated album of compelling original material later in 2024, with collaborations from industry greats Chris Layton and Tommy Emmanuel.
More special guests to be announced closer to the release.

Biographie de Brett Wood
Wood began his journey in music like many other young players.
Jamming at school, joining school bands, and having guitar lessons. But unlike most of the pack, he became obsessed and hooked on the instrument to an almost unhealthy degree.
A short 12 months later, his raw talent was recognised by guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, which led to tours throughout the US, Europe, and Australia. Including a trip to Nashville in 1999 where Tommy introduced Wood to Chet Atkins and Jerry Reid.
Following the whirlwind of these early career achievements, Wood began a humble career as a session musician, contributing to multiple artists across the country, in the capacity of live touring, studio recording, and TV performances.
For nearly two decades, Wood has served as the lead guitarist and creative contributor for Australian artist Pete Murray, touring globally with both Pete and the Aussie rock act Electric Mary.
28 years after the release of his first self-produced album, Brett Wood has arrived as a well-rounded and seasoned session guitarist.
All the while developing his craft as a singer-songwriter, he now focuses his time, energy, and resources on evolving beyond his session skills into being an established artist, showcasing his own compelling material.
