Date of Gig:   4th Feb
Message:   Couldn’t believe so few people turned out to see this amazing flatpicker! It was slightly incongruous to see and hear an Italian performing what is usually believed to be quintessentially an American music form ‘Bluegrass’, but Beppe excelled. From old timey classics to Celtic and new compositions each song/tune evoked the emotions of the listeners. Beppe’s technical prowess was belied by the simplicity of the compositions; honestly it’s enough to make you give up even attempting to play the guitar! Between each song Beppe engaged the audience in a self effacing and warm way, explaining his musical journey from Jimmy Page to Doc Watson. He even described how he formed (the first??) Italian Bluegrass band in Genova.
All in all a great performance from a master craftsman.
