Christopher Paul Stelling plays guitar like there’s a fire is burning under his seat. His fingerstyle is so quick and relentless that his songs feel like they are ready to burst at the seams. It’s a tight line to walk, but Stelling manages to give each performance his all, without losing control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For his second appearance on AG Sessions, Stelling performs pair of songs (\u201cCutting Loose\u201d and \u201cWildfire\u201d) from his new album, Forgiving It All<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both are played in an open-E tuning on his 1941 Martin 00-18<\/a>, which was bought in a \u201cpretty bad state\u201d and brought back to playing condition by the luthier and repair tech Justin Eisenman, in Asheville, North Carolina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recorded at Future Apple Tree Studio<\/strong>, Rock Island, IL, by Ian Harris.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forgiving It All<\/em> is available now<\/a><\/strong>, and CPS is out touring the album:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
