@mikedawesofficial You are my favorite guitarist of all time. Your music literally brings tears to my eyes because of how truly beautiful it is. It touches my soul. I have requested that when I leave this earth that your music be played at my service. Thank you for playing the music that I hear in my head but I don't have the musical talent to bring it to life the way you do my friend. My guitar skills are virtually non existent compared to yours😂
That piece is stunning! It truly is your greatest piece yet. So amazing. You're a phenomenal composer and of course an amazing player. Hedges would be proud! Really hope to see and meet you some day.
My 6 and 4 year old daughters did the same. Just stared and listened for the entire time. I’m gonna start blasting this any time things get too hectic lol
@@mikedawesofficial Been playing for 20 years and got into a bit of a slump and seeing your Rick beato video renewed my love of guitar for this I am eternally grateful ✌️💚
I really believe this is going to go down in history as one of the most beautiful fingerstyle songs ever written. It's so refreshing to hear again a guitarist with something to say... And you say it loud and clear.
As a classical guitarist for the past 55yrs Mike has blown me away with his technique, expression and song writing skills. Bravo Mike because you have sought excellence and have been rewarded.
Thank you Mike - I am here thx to you being on Rick Beato’s YT show and I can’t express enough how much your music has impacted me. I bought your vinyl album on the spot. Thank you for being who you are. Cheers 🍷
@@mikedawesofficial Mike Dawes ome, you are an extremely talented musician and a wonderful gift to this world. May you have a long prosperous journey creating beautiful music!
You converse in another language that is way above the intellectual capabilities of most musicians. I listened to a Chinese guitarist at the Adelaide guitar festival who had the same fluent touch and made the guitar sing. You have an incredible ability to bring tears to my eyes. Thankyou from an old fart who loves this sort of meditative, soothing music. 👏👏👏🇦🇺🙏
I have no words for how overwhelming this is. I have played guitar since 2001, and it is my primary emotional outlet. I have been suffering from fingertip dermatitis for the past year, which has prevented me from playing guitar during that time, despite my best efforts to address the causes of my dermatitis. I'm home sick for the past 4 days, and this just dropped. I clicked on it as soon as i saw it, and about 45 seconds to a minute in, right as that OC-5 kicks in, and there's a flash of a smile in the left corner of your mouth, a tidal wave of emotion blindsided me and i sobbed like an infant for the rest of the song. i felt fear, desperation, anger, frustration, and profound sadness, but buried deep in there, holding the whole mess together, Hope. I don't know if i've ever cried like that in my life. I've only listened to the song once, and i need to calm myself down before i listen again. I've had to pause several times to gather myself even as i write this comment. I am compelled to share my deepest gratitude for sharing this song. you have helped unlock a measure of the emotions i've been holding in over the past year. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. I wish i could express to you the way i feel right now. This comment is a feeble attempt, but i want you to know that you have gifted me a puzzle piece on my road to recovery. Again, thank you.
Hey I hope it is ok I respond❤ I play guitar since mid 90s and intensely since I am 16, I am 39 now. The last 3 years have been hardest of my life cause for an auto immune/neurological disease, I cant play the extend I used to have. But at least I am able to play on better days if. I am beyond grateful for it, to still do it, even if its hard not play that much or practice on a regular basis. I feel ur comment, and its really hard and frustrating to not be able to play guitar😢. Mike is a pure genius and his music is truly a gift, not only but especially in hard times. All the best to you. And improving health. Cheers from Germany
I often feel a depth of emotion words can't express when I listen to acoustic like this, that was a beautiful attempt to quantify something that can't be put in a box. I hope your fingers heal buddy, God bless.
I'll never forget the day I played guitar again (without pain) years after I lost my middle and ring finger tips of my left hand. I thought the injury itself would never heal, and when it had healed - then came the doubt that the scar tissue would ever be less sensitive to handle the metal strings and build calluses - it stung like fuck. I'm writing this to you sir because I also cried like I haven't in years when I listened to this song, and for all the same reasons as yourself, although I wish I had 'hope' sooner and not doubted the recovery process. I know I would've healed faster with more optimistic eyes! If I had hope I would have used the opportunity to buy a keyboard & some good headphones, and start learning musical theory from a different instrument (it is much easier) and expressing myself in a new way. Translate some of my pieces to piano, learn songs, etc. I now enjoy piano so much I couldn't imagine it not being in my life - everything happens for a reason! I have always loved Mike Dawes and a new release like this is a true blessing.
To pour your heart out like that to strangers is huge bro I can only wish you the very best for the future hang in there bro music will save us all if we let it - throwing out love to you man take care ❤
Had I not seen this, I would’ve sworn it was 3 guitarists & 1 percussionist. As a longtime fingerstyle guitarist, I can say from experience that this masterpiece is an achievement of a monumental amount of work, diligence, precision and skill.
Greetings from Ukraine! The world deeply lacks music like this-it has the power to heal the spirit and elevate consciousness. With such music, there would be no wars. Thank you Mike for the spirit and music!
7 minutes might be a lot in our fast-forward and short focused society but, sometimes, they might be all you need to breathe. Thank you Mike, this is soul nourishing.
While listening this amazing piece, my innocent dauther told me accidentally the best compliment she ever said, while looking at me. She said "I though you played". She truly believed I was playing this song. This is abosutely as far as I can reach.
This song left me completely speechles in the best way possible. The level of genius on the accoustic guitar as well as the feelings created by the wonderful melodies and handmade sound-FX cannot be put into words. Instrumental song of the decade.
Had the pleasure of seeing you in Phoenix in August. I've been playing for 53 years, mainly acoustic fingerstyle, but will never come close to this. Even so, watching and listening to you do what you do inspires me to pick up my guitar and play whatever meager offerings I can. This piece leaves me awestruck every time I listen. Thanks for the music and the inspiration!
Good sir, hats off. In the mist of the chaos we call world we live in, you managed to deliver 7 min of pure hope, beauty and bliss. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for this.
This tune strikes me as very Hedges-esque, but it's so much more. You truly took the legacy of fingerstyle guitar, but instead of just copying you build upon it your own story, expressed not only with technical finesse, but first and foremost with feeling, groove, musicality, tenderness and incredible taste. That's what acoustic fingerstyle guitar is about. Kudos, you're amazing, and this is and instant classic, as well as one of my new favorite songs. Thank you!
For 7 minutes, everything was good and peaceful in the world. Your playing never ceases to inspire, this arrangement was truly incredible. Thank you for being you and sharing this wonderful content with the world.
You pulled out all the modern fingerstyle stops, but in such a stunningly tasteful way. I'm constantly in awe with your skill and sense of melody and harmony.
The main melody actually reminds me a little bit of Jeff Beck’s part in “People, Get Ready”. Love your stuff, Mike! As usual, I don’t know whether I should feel inspired or if I should just go burn my guitars.
Thank you for beautiful music. I have often thought that the percussion aspect of your music is overemphasized and have always wanted to hear you just play guitar. This tune has a beautiful blend of both. Long live your creativity. The world is a better place because of what you do.
Truly inspiring. Have played in DADGAD and other tunings on and off for decades (I'm 69 now), this playing inspires me to push boundaries and effects so much further, so refreshing at my age. Cannot afford a Cuntz - happy with a lovely now-hardened FG180 I've had since I was 13 - but how smart is that headstock for tuning stability. So, so looking forward to Mike playing just up the road from me on 28th March 2025.
Always reminding me why I fell in love with guitar at a young age. I may not always play as much as I’d like, but writing and playing like this takes me right back home! Tremendous. Thank you!
Even if this piece wasn't called 'Cloud Catcher' it makes me envision flying through a cloudy sky regardless. Truly fantastic mate! The video is awesome too!
So very beautiful and passionate. Music has been a huge part of the healing process, both body and mind after a recent cancer journey. This brings such peace to my soul. My alarm wakes me every morning with you and Tommy Emmanuel playing "Fields of Gold" so I always wake up with a happy heart. Thank You so very much for your incredible gift of music. Happy Birthday!! Cheers!! 🙂
Absolutely fecking beautiful composition. The epitome of fingerstyle guitar. Everything done to serve the music itself. Such beauty hidden in the intricacy and technicality.
Mike Dawes, really; you always surprise us ....the composition, the interpretation, the musical arrengements..... everything is just beautiful, perfect, marvelous..... 1 hour and some minutes listening that song "Cloud Catcher" !!!!! Over and over and over again........

Parts sounding like a straight homage to parts of aerial boundaries. Too similar not to be I would think. I would assume this dude is heavily inspired by him but idk
There are many levels of guitar players, beginner, intermediate, advanced, and Virtuoso, you sir are a Virtuoso!!! That was the most beautiful and wonderfully perfect guitar playing I've ever heard. 👏😊
You have to see the Rick Beato video where Mr. Dawes explains all of the features and technology that goes into his guitar set-up...absolutely amazing. This guy is a genius as well as a talented musician...just brilliant. I love this...just Wow.

Mike at its peak!!! The most rounded acoustic player. Love what you do
There are days when I listen to Mike and it makes me want to throw my guitars away, and there are days when I listen and just feel inspired. Today is a day where i feel inspired. Juat awesome
Cloud Catcher is great! I just hope that "everything you want to say on the acoustic guitar" just keeps giving...🙂 meaning i hope you keep tapping into that inspiration and sharing again!
Breathtaking song. You know a song is good when it's an instrumental but the melodies in it are so strong on their own they immediately get stuck in your brain upon finishing it.
Mike, it's beautiful. It's such a clear narrative story, I'm desperate to know: What's it about? (I could decide for myself, you know, cos it's music. But I'd love to hear whatever you're willing to reveal of the story behind it.)

That’s amazing aww
@mikedawesofficial you silenced all of us. Amazing stuff man.
My 6 and 4 year old daughters did the same. Just stared and listened for the entire time. I’m gonna start blasting this any time things get too hectic lol
Yo not only did you get those few minutes, but you got a response from one of the greatest percussive guitarists to ever walk this earth 🤌

Thanks bro! Love ya

Mike has the platinum trophy for acoustic guitar.
Fr no doubt
Song of the year!
So much awful in the world, you just gifted me with 7 minutes of peace. Taking a deep breath, smiling, and thanking the universe for such beauty.

Dude, what a composition!!! Absolutely stunning from beginning to end, I'm absolutely speechless!
Brought a huge smile on my face throughout the entire 7 mins. Amazing, I wish you could come to Ireland some day. ☘️
He did sir, Belfast at least with Tommy Emmanuel a few months ago. It was great! Hopefully they’ll be back. Slainte
Also hit up Derry and Dublin as well. I hope they do come back, I had to work 😢
Beautiful Mike. Beautiful 🙏
Breathtaking song. You know a song is good when it's an instrumental but the melodies in it are so strong on their own they immediately get stuck in your brain upon finishing it.
One of the best guitarists on this planet. An amazing talent, and seemingly very humble guy.
Awww Mike. That's beautiful.
That key change was pure nostalgia
You are an ambassador of love, advocating what the world needs dearly.
Mike, it's beautiful. It's such a clear narrative story, I'm desperate to know: What's it about? (I could decide for myself, you know, cos it's music. But I'd love to hear whatever you're willing to reveal of the story behind it.)
Jon, u are same kind of amazing. Hope u are doing well.
¡Gracias!
This is a video of a man doing nothing but expressing what we are all here to express.
sounds beautiful. love the key change in the end.
Spectacular! Perfect an hour before bedtime - now I am calm and my soul is set free.
Flawless. I've been playing guitar since 1976; I can say that it doesn't get any better. He is blessed.
Thank you Mike..for sharing your journey with us..an absolute pleasure
