Jon Gomm, the UK based acoustic guitar virtuoso, finds new emotional depths in immense melodic pop landscapes, with his album 'The faintest idea'. As one of the pioneers of the modern fingerstyle sound, Jon Gomm has a rare gift for turning one instrument into what feels like an entire orchestra.

The Blackpool-born singer-songwriter's 2003 home-recorded debut, 'Hypertension', was nothing short of a musical revelation: drumming beats, tapping chords & striking harmonics on his acoustic underneath that warm, soulful voice. Things changed for Jon when landmark single 'Passionflower' racked up millions of views on YouTube & other media platforms in 2012 - with British TV legend Stephen Fry describing him on mainstream television as someone "playing the guitar in a way I'd never seen it played before" & "an all-round genius".

The Faintest Idea's title is based on the notion that all of us, to some extent, are just The Faintest Idea, "It's an enigmatic title," smiles Gomm. "There's a fine line between a metaphor & a pun, so I guess it dances on that" & explores the contrasts between the warmth of Gomm's acoustic articulation with more icy affairs, thanks to the synth parts & production work from Australian musician Andy Sorenson, together they created a contemporary masterpiece.
