Gareth Pearson, Matt Thomas and Gary Dawson - Cannonball Rag

Guitarists Gareth Pearson, Matt Thomas and Gary Dawson playing an exciting and energetic cover of Cannonball Rag. Cannonball Rag is a Merle Travis classic, great fingerpickers like Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Tommy Emmanuel, Buster B Jones and Thom Bresh have all covered this song one way or the other :)
Look out for the section where they play on each other's fingerboard! The footage was from the Saturday Night Tribute Concert at Chet Atkins Appreciation Society 2005
Gareth Pearson is from Wales UK , while Matt Thomas and Gary Dawson are from USA.

Matt Thomas is even sicker now and he's been writing a bunch of new stuff, just came out with a CD. I saw him perform in Newport News 2 nights ago.
