Trace Bundy is an American acoustic guitar player who lives and performs in Boulder, Colorado.

Bundy was born in Austin, Minnesota[1] and later moved to the small town of Buena Vista, Colorado.

[3] Bundy met Jonah Werner (now an acclaimed acoustic folk songwriter) in high school and started playing with him at a local coffee shop in Buena Vista.

Bundy then met Tim Thornton from Newcomers Home and started playing old Dylan and Cat Stevens tunes.

Some of the more popular clips are Bundy covering the Backstreet Boys song "I Want It That Way", and Pachelbel's Canon[4][5] performed on an acoustic guitar using the fingertapping technique.

The album was inspired by a trip Bundy and his wife Becca made to Central America, accompanying a humanitarian group.

[4] In 2014, Bundy won the ESPN SportsCenter Fan Jam contest while he performed the program's theme tune live on the show on March 4, 2014 at ESPN's studios in Bristol, Connecticut.”[1][2] In 2016, he was the subject of Acoustic Ninja, a short documentary film made by Florida State University student Robert Bevis.

Furious, marksman-like fretboard tapping, blizzards of bouncing harmonics, tricky in-song capo-sliding (or removal/addition), freehand guitar body tapping — Bundy combines a dizzying range of offbeat technical calisthenics and inverted melodic sense to create what can safely be characterized as performance art."
