Guitarist Tommy Emmanuel returns to Gettysburg College’s Majestic Theater.

The real-time exuberance Tommy Emmanuel brings to every note of every song he plays is palpable and infectious. His fans are in love with his unbound talent as a guitarist of multitudes, his ability to play three parts at once, always with purse heart and real soul. He is a true virtuoso. But he seems as delighted always with the magic of the music as the audience, if not more, and his joy illuminates everything.

In 2018, Tommy made the great album, Accomplice One, a series of duets with musicians great and varied. Now comes the long-awaited sequel, Accomplice Two. The first single, “White Freight Liner Blues” is out now and features the Grammy award winner and claw hammer guitarist Molly Tuttle. Tommy also has a new television special called Accomplice LIVE! which began airing on PBS in March 2023.

Cris Jacobs

From Baltimore comes Cris Jacobs — an unexpectedly gritty soul-blues singer and guitarist with outlaw country ethos. Blending a variety of musical traditions, Jacobs creates a distinctive voice and sound of his own punctuated by emotive songwriting and explosive guitar playing. Equally at home playing heartfelt Americana ballads or funky blues rockers, Jacobs is known for his mesmerizing live shows, where his improvisational guitar playing, powerhouse band, and deep reservoir of songs make each night a unique experience.

Named one of Rolling Stone’s “10 New Country Artists You Need to Know” in 2017, Jacobs has collaborated with the Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh and Dumpstaphunk’s Ivan Neville, and earned opening slots on tours with Sturgill Simpson and Steve Winwood.

Tickets on sale to the general public at 10 am on Friday, October 27.

Majestic member pre-sale starts Wednesday, October 25. Access pre-sale by logging into your member account, or contacting the Box Office at (717) 337-8200 or 25 Carlisle St., Gettysburg.
