SHOWHAWK DUO:

Young British guitarists Mikhail Asanovic and Jake Wright, together known as The Showhawk
Duo, have dazzled audiences worldwide with their spectacular approach to playing the guitar.
Their playing style has broken down barriers between acoustic and electronic music. Whether
playing old-school trance classics or modern funky house, their live show knows no boundaries
and will leave you amazed.
Mik is a classical guitarist at heart, having studied at Manchester’s RNCM whereas Jake is an
electric junkie and grew up playing in rock and metal bands. Mik’s classical foundation shines
through in the music with Jake’s raw percussive approach always keeping the crowd moving.
Together they create a truly unique and impressive sound, and have turned many “acoustic”
nights into a thumping rave.
