About Me

Forgiving Dreams - Produced by Will Ackerman


Damon Buxton is a fingerstyle acoustic guitarist and composer working in the tradition of the Windham Hill artists. Picking up the guitar at age twenty-one, Buxton taught himself to play and, in the process, developed the soulful fingerpicking style that remains his trademark.

After initial success with a demo release, Buxton established a recording collaboration with Will Ackerman, Grammy award winning founder of Windham Hill Records, who produced Buxton’s latest release, Forgiving Dreams.

"Forgiving Dreams is remarkable debut recording by Damon Buxton. It’s rare for someone this early in their career to have achieved a voice that is distinctively their own and Damon is definitely one of the rare ones. While also graced with uptempo and rhythmic work, the album is a reflective and introspective journey for the most part. A work of intelligence and heart, Forgiving Dreams should not be missed."

Damon Buxton is also an award-winning designer, founding the interactive design and identity firm Amadeo.
