Emmy Award Fingerstyle Acoustic Guitar Musician. For decades, Billy McLaughlin astounded audiences around the world with his complex and rhythmic music.

After being diagnosed with focal dystonia of his right hand, musician Billy McLaughlin relearned how to play the guitar—with his left. The incredible moment was captured in his legendary Coming Back Alive concert.

…McLaughlin set another goal: to perform with an orchestra in front of a live audience. “It was such a test for me to see if I could handle all that,” he says. At that time, in 2004, some of McLaughlin’s fans approached him about documenting this comeback concert. Soon a documentary crew joined him on his journey back to performing. “They wanted to see if I could pull it off,” he says. “At the point when they started shooting, I was awful. It was crazy.”In late 2005, McLaughlin felt confident enough to attempt a first performance. The concert, aptly named “Coming Back Alive,” consisted of a mixture of pieces, many composed by McLaughlin after his struggle with dystonia. Of his song “Don’t Know How to Die,” he says, “It’s a song about not giving up, about not knowing what to do with yourself if you aren’t doing what you know you’ve been put on earth to do.” He describes the piece as “deeply emotional,” and one he would not have written had he not gone through his struggle to keep playing music.

For this first concert performance, McLaughlin received high accolades from musicians and fans alike. The orchestra members, after completing their performance segment, remained to hear the second half of the show. “It meant a great deal to me because it said that the quality and the level of music-making were really high,” he says.
