Bio

Damon Buxton is an American fingerstyle acoustic guitarist and composer. His primary instrument is the six-string classical guitar. Damon’s compositions draw on musical traditions of classical, new age, and jazz, and his arrangements of existing pieces are infused with an inspiring dynamic and beauty. With a catalog of 12 albums, he delivers an uplifting and powerful instrumental guitar performance with positive humor and grace.

Damon was educated at Cornish College of The Arts in Seattle Washington USA. After an early collaboration with Windham Hill Records founder Will Ackerman, he built his own studio and set out to create some of the world’s most beautiful and intimate guitar music.

Damon has performed at Seattle’s Kirkland Performance Center, Bastyr University Chapel, Seattle Exhibition Center, and Thumbnail Theater, The Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh, and other performing arts centers throughout the United States.
