“People say, ‘You’re playing the guitar on your lap, you learned from Guitar Hero.’ But it’s taken years to figure out how to write complex compositions”: Yasmin Williams brings lap-tapping and double-neck guitar to late-night TV with Colbert performance

Tapping maestro Yasmin Williams treated The Late Show with Stephen Colbert audience to a mesmerizing performance of Nectar – fresh from her new album, Acadia – on an Alpine White Gibson EDS-1275.

The track sees Williams lay the double-neck guitar on her lap and deliver a masterclass in tapping, crafting an ethereal and dreamy composition rich in texture and layers – and certainly not lacking in technical intricacy.
