The Nightwatchman

AKA Tom Morello, solo and acoustic. Since 2003.

Morello has previously played with both Rage Against The Machine and Audioslave. Rolling Stone once ranked him as the 26th best guitar player of all time.

Of The Nightwatchman, Tom says:

"The Nightwatchman is my political folk alter ego. I've been writing these songs and playing them at open mic nights with friends for some time. This is the first time I've toured with it. When I play open mic nights, it's announced as The Nightwatchman. There will be kids there who are fans of my electric guitar playing, and you see them there scratching their heads."
