acoustic guitar

“Nowhere Is Where” is silent but lethal, Price’s gorgeously textured voice over an acoustic guitar, small harmonies on the chorus, an upright bass over in the corner, a fiddle underscoring the anguish.

“If you pull it out of acoustic guitar, you put a piano there and it works, it’s a good song,” he shared in a video on Instagram.

The set opened with a full run of “Seven Psalms,” a short yet profound song cycle in which a dense, ornamental acoustic guitar figure recurs over several songs in an intimate valediction.

Sheeran himself is equally as excited about his huge shows this weekend - but it is not the first time he and his acoustic guitar have popped up in the town.

"We had one poor quality acoustic guitar, and out of tune piano and an African drum, and we attempted to play this song and at the end of it we somehow decided to tour."
