Kessler Watson is a traditional American guitarist, banjo player and musical saw player – prominent in traditional Appalachian music and a composer of original guitar and banjo works for most of his life. As a teenager he picked up the guitar and was immediately enamored by its qualities, and found it to be the primary artistic love of his life from then onward, and today composes and plays many different styles of guitar works from original compositions, to classical repertoire, flatpicking and finger style blues.

Kessler has lived and played as a professional musician in Asheville since 2018, and has been a street musician for most of his life.
