Beppe Gambetta in Concert

March 2, 2019 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm

The Penny Lane Sessions Present:

Beppe Gambetta in Concert, Saturday March 2nd, 7:30pm (Guitar Workshop at 5pm)

 

In 1977, Gambetta founded Red Wine, an Italian bluegrass band. He wrote the first Italian instructional book on flatpicking.[1] His flatpicking style is similar to Doc Watson‘s and Moravian folk music. This style is characterized by flashy licks, intricate cross-picking patterns, open tunings, and fluid slides up and down the neck of the guitar.[2]

Although Beppe lives in Genoa, he travels throughout North America every year. He has performed in the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas, MerleFest in North Carolina, the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas and festivals in Winnipeg and Edmonton. He has appeared on the radio programs All Things Considered and eTown.

Beppe has performed with David Grisman, Gene Parsons, Doc Watson, Norman Blake and the band Men of Steel, which comprises Dan Crary, Tony McManus, and Don Ross. He toured with banjo player Tony Trischka and released the accompanying live album Alone and Together.[3] In 2015, Gambetta embarked on a brief tour with cellist Rushad Eggleston.[4]
