In a social media post, Slash wrote that Patrzałek "has redefined acoustic guitar with jaw-dropping fingerstyle, percussion, and classical techniques," adding: "after captivating millions online and performing on global stages, he’s finally bringing his electrifying live show to India.”

On Thursday, Patrzałek concluded his four-concert tour of India, which also took him to Mumbai, Bengaluru and Gurugram.

Born in 2000 in Kielce, south-central Poland, Patrzałek rose to prominence in 2015 after winning Poland's talent show "Must Be the Music."

In 2019, he reached the semifinals of the 14th season of "America’s Got Talent."

His career as a percussive fingerstyle guitarist, composer and producer has developed rapidly. His videos have been featured by publications including Rolling Stone, Classic FM, Guitar World and Billboard.

He has also appeared as a special guest at a series of concerts at London's Royal Albert Hall as part of the Classical Spectacular show.

Patrzałek's discography includes three albums: Hush, released in 2016; revAMP (2018); and Dragon in Harmony, released in 2024.

Two years ago, Patrzałek received the Opus Klassik Award, one of the world's leading classical music prizes.

He won the award in the Music Video of the Year category for his performance of Habanera, a popular aria from Bizet’s opera Carmen.
