Casper Esmann is one of Scandinavia's most popular fingerstyle guitarists around today. Casper was born on December 7th 1992 in Slagelse, Denmark and was almost immediately introduced to the piano by his mother. After several years of piano lessons Casper then discovered Tommy Emmanuel when he was 14, this encounter made him pickup the guitar immediately. Since there were no teachers in Denmark who taught fingerstyle back then, Casper had no choice but trying to teach himself how to play by listening to CD's and watching live DVD's from Tommy Emmanuel.
He has since then released 6 studio albums, played and performed with many famous musicians from all over the world, including Sungha Jung, Andy McKee, Joe Robinson, Adam Rafferty and his all time hero Tommy Emmanuel. Casper has been touring all over the world for the past couple of years, right from Europe and USA to Russia, China and Japan.
Casper recently released his 6th studio album "Quandary" which is now available worldwide on Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, Amazon, Google Play etc.
Casper has played and performed for millions on live TV broadcasts multiple times on Denmarks biggest TV station (TV2), as well as playing big festivals in front of +15.000 people.
In 2018 Casper became a finalist in the world renowned guitar competition by MusicRadar, "Acoustic Guitarist Of The Year". Where he performed his original song "D-Day" live at the Olympia in London.
