Luca Stricagnoli, whose music videos have garnered over 200 million views online and who performs on stages around the world, is recognised as one of today's most unique guitarists. His creative style, which led to the invention of instruments such as the Reversed Triple Neck Guitar and the Reversed Slide Neck, has made a significant contribution to the modern evolution of the acoustic guitar.
He has been described as a ‘phenomenon’ and a ‘genius’ by leading magazines and newspapers such as NME, Guitar World, Der Spiegel, La Repubblica, Daily Sabah, and Frankfurter Allgemeine.
Thanks to his music, he has performed in front of audiences of up to 12,000 people in over 20 countries, even catching the attention of world-renowned bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, and Walk Off The Earth.
Luca began his musical career at the age of 10 with classical guitar lessons and later attended Italy's most prestigious music school, the conservatory. He proved himself in the classical guitar field by winning first place in the ‘Cittá di Lissone’ competition. He then discovered the Fingerstyle Guitar style and began teaching himself the techniques through videos on YouTube. He won first place with an acoustic guitar at the ‘VII Festival Internazionale Della Chitarra di Fiuggi’ competition with a score of 100/100, and also won the ‘Festival dei Talenti’ award and the opportunity to perform in front of the legendary Italian group New Trolls. During this period, he met Italian guitar maker Davide Serracini and began working with him.
