Antonio Forcione

Breaking the mould of most conventional popular guitar sounds, whether in the field of jazz, Spanish, Brazilian, folk, felamenco, pop, rock classical or improvised music, Antonio Forcione draws on the full dynamic range of the instrument, using his entire body as a percussive tool. Dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the acoustic guitar world, Antonio has recorded 16 albums and opened for Phil Collins, Bobby McFerrin and Jools Holland. 'Forcione is mesmerizing .. passion, grace and fire' (The Times).
