Muriel Anderson short bio

The first woman to win the National Fingerstyle Championship, Muriel Anderson was named as one of the top 50 guitarists of all time by Guitar Player Magazine and recently listed as one of the top 10 women guitarists. Yet it is her gentle sense of humor, uplifting melodies, and brilliant compositions that leave her audience smiling.

Muriel Anderson is a good friend and a great guitarist.  She deserves national recognition. …Chet Atkins

Just one hell of a great player …a great personality and what I like is the touch that Muriel has on the guitar, the way she plays it like we all wish to play. …Les Paul

She has recorded with country legend Chet Atkins, performed with Les Paul and countless other greats in “Muriel Anderson’s All Star Guitar Night®” over the past 30+ years. Muriel’s CD Nightlight Daylight placed first in its category in 11 national awards, followed by Acoustic Chef, an international CD with cookbook. Muriel’s release Sailing Dreams exhibits new levels of creativity–she and partner Bryan Allen created a board game to accompany the music.
