Performer Info
With more than 200 million views on his music videos and concerts in over 30 countries, Luca Stricagnoli has established himself as one of the most innovative and unique guitarists in the world. Known for pushing the boundaries of the acoustic guitar, he has invented groundbreaking instruments such as the Reversed Triple Neck Guitar, the Reversed Slide Neck, and The Guitar Ring, each of which has contributed to redefining the modern acoustic landscape.
Celebrated as both a phenomenon and a prodigy, Stricagnoli has been featured in major international outlets including NME, Guitar World, Der Spiegel, La Repubblica, Daily Sabah, and Frankfurter Allgemeine. His viral performances, including the world’s first guitar with a reversed neck, catapulted his career, leading to appearances at events for Nobel Prize winners and top CEOs, as well as features in countless television programs. His music has been shared by world-famous bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Muse, and Walk Off The Earth.
Stricagnoli has released six albums to date: Luca Stricagnoli (2015), What If? (2017), Change of Rules (2019), Blue (2021), Unsent (2022), and Guitars for Nothing (2023). Each project showcases his unorthodox techniques and imaginative approach to the instrument, expanding both his reach and influence.
Alongside his recording success, Stricagnoli has performed close to 100 shows a year, from intimate concerts in remote towns to major stages such as the Nokia Arena in Tel Aviv. He has played sold-out concerts in prestigious philharmonics, theaters, and performing arts centers, as well as exclusive private events for clients including Formula1, Hard Rock Hotel, Infosys, and BNSF Railways. His artistry has also brought him toper form at universities, international festivals, national television, and to be a judge at global guitar competitions. His work has been recognized with numerous honors, including InterContinental Music Awards, Global Music Awards, Lit of the Year Award, and many others.
Throughout his career, Stricagnoli has shared the stage with some of the most respected musicians in the world, including Grammy winner Jim “Kimo” West, Grammy nominee Debashish Bhattacharya, and German Critics’ Award winner Lulo Reinhardt.
Born and raised in Italy, Stricagnoli later moved to Germany and, in 2023, relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, with Meg Pfeiffer to continue developing their vision at the heart of the music industry. He is a voting member of the Recording Academy and has also founded his own music label. In addition, he serves as a recurring host of International Guitar Night, where he continues to inspire audiences world-wide with his innovative musicianship and visionary spirit.
