Adrian Legg plays the International Guitar Festival in Orlando

There’s some international musical royalty on the way to Orlando this weekend. Guitarist Adrian Legg comes to Timucua to play a headlining set as part of the International Guitar Festival.

Don’t let his somewhat buttoned-down look fool you — U.K. axman Legg has been plying his craft since the early 1970s, racking up innumerable guitar mag poll wins and praise from Britpop mag Q as a “guitarist of astonishing virtuosity.”

Promised for his set on Saturday is “alternating-bass style with harmonics, banjo-peg retuning and single or double-string bending” — which sounds pretty wild when we mightily struggle with barre chords.

Adrian Legg plays the Timucua Arts Foundation’s Guitar Festival on Saturday, Aug. 31, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are still available through the venue.
