"I play the guitar because it lets me dream out loud." - Michael Hedges

Michael Hedges (December 31, 1953 -- December 2, 1997) was an American acoustic guitarist born in Sacramento, CA and raised in Enid, Oklahoma. Hedges was a Peabody Conservatory composition major who applied his classically trained musical background in combination with various unusual techniques to the steel-string acoustic guitar. He covered a wide range of musical styles and was considered an extremely dynamic performer in concert. He saw himself as a composer who played guitar, rather than a guitarist who composed music.
