Judith Beckedorf, a musician born near Hamburg, discovered her passion for the guitar at the age of 14 and worked largely self-taught until her university studies. She was initially drawn to the fingerstyle scene, where she quickly gained attention with successful YouTube videos. To learn from renowned guitarists Thomas Fellow, Reentko Dirks, and Stephan Bormann and to further her musical development, she moved to Dresden in 2012 and studied at the Carl Maria von Weber University of Music. Since then, she has performed regularly both solo and with singer Victor Sepulveda.
In her search for her own musical language, the acoustic guitarist increasingly incorporates her voice. The nylon strings of her guitar accompany her songs, mostly with English lyrics, and bring her own instrumental compositions and arrangements to life. To learn more about this, Judith spent a year in Nashville, TN (USA), also known as "Music City," where she devoted herself to bluegrass music and songwriting.
Her greatest musical influences include her guitar hero Tommy Emmanuel and traditional American folk songs. In her own compositions, the young musician combines lively guitar playing with tangible melodies, unfiltered personal experiences with fictional stories.
