Philip Masure

Philip Masure

Hoewel Philip Masure een indrukwekkend arsenaal aan instrumenten beheerst, is hij vooral bekend als gitarist. Hij wordt internationaal geroemd als specialist in de DADGAD-openstemming – een alternatieve gitaarstemming die zijn handelsmerk is geworden.

Doorheen zijn carrière speelde Philip met tal van gerenommeerde artiesten en groepen, waaronder Urban Trad, Laïs, Comas, Orion, Micha Marah, en Garva. Daarnaast trad hij op als gastmuzikant bij onder meer The Chieftains, Mugar, Eimear Quinn, Steve Willaert en Philippe Robrecht.

Als docent gaf hij gitaarworkshops over de hele wereld – van Ierland en Bretagne tot Canada en de Verenigde Staten – waar hij zijn unieke speelstijl deelde met muzikanten van diverse achtergronden.

In de studio werkte Philip mee aan meer dan honderd albums, en hij wordt steeds vaker gevraagd als producer voor binnen- en buitenlandse projecten. Zijn muzikale veelzijdigheid en warme klank hebben een blijvende invloed gehad op de Vlaamse en internationale folkscène.

Het Britse tijdschrift The Irish Post omschreef hem ooit als een van de meest gezochte gitaristen in de Keltische muziekwereld – een eretitel die hij tot op vandaag probleemloos waarmaakt.
