Get to jamming on Suzanne Vega!
We are celebrating our 40th anniversary this year! And because we would like to celebrate it with you as well, we have prepared a special Instagram competition for you, the face of which is none other than the American folk singer Suzanne Vega!
Suzanne wrote one of her greatest hits four decades ago, which still inspires many artists. We are talking about Tom’s diner! You all know it for sure, and you’ve surely plucked it on guitar a time or two. Now you have a unique opportunity to present us your fresh version of this song and win one of the three Furch acoustic guitars!
