Adorable Italian guitarist Luca Stricagnoli is a born multi-tasker. It’s not enough that he plays acoustic guitar like an angel. Nope. Stricagnoli prefers to play between two and five guitars at the same time!
The sound he gets out of his custom-built triple-necked guitar/bass is phenomenally full. It’s hard to believe he’s playing one (triple) instrument! When Stricagnoli plays multiple guitars at the same time in concert, the sound he produces is every bit as lush as that from his tricked-out triple.
“Every so often, a musician emerges who, in terms of depth of expression, advances a style so much that the way we listen changes forever. Italian guitarist Luca Stricagnoli embodies such a shift. He employs right-hand fretting, altered tunings, and partial capos in the spirit of Preston Reed and Kaki King, yet, like Trucks, he’s playing at a higher level.” -Minor 7th
You can follow the phenomenal Stricagnoli on his website, Facebook, Instagram, and on Candyrat Records’ YouTube channel.

I was going to ask you whether he had passed through Austin (since it seems like most musicians do).

I haven’t seen him here, but it’s hard to keep up since there is music everywhere every day.

He sure is! I wonder how he got started playing multiple instruments at once…

I saved watching the videos until my kids could watch with me. We loved the covers of each song, the fact they were recognisable but in a totally different style. That guitar playing is monumentally impressive. I cannot even begin to imagine how one keeps track of what strings to pluck on what instrument at what time.

He really seems like he’s using parts of his brain to which I don’t have access. Talk about a one-man band!
