Hey there, I’m Piergiorgio Lucidi, I’m a Jazz / Blues guitar player working and living in Rome.

I'm an italian Jazz / Blues guitar player and software engineer, my music work is influenced by these artists: Scott Henderson, Tribal Tech, Robben Ford, Allan Holdsworth, John Scofield, Pat Metheny, Django Reinhardt, Chick Corea, Weather Report.

I started to play guitar when I was sixteen, I grew up listening rock-blues music such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Gary Moore, Robben Ford and Scott Henderson.

Then I passed on listening Robert Johnson, passing for Cole Porter, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock and Charlie Parker. I learned to improvise directly from pianists, trumpeters and saxophonists without approaching to any specific method for guitarists.

After a year I was self-taught, I decided to attend a "Jazz/Rock Guitar" course and I was enrolled to the Anagni School of Music, Enzo Salvi was my master (B.M.I. - Banca della Musica Italiana's lead guitarist).

I deepened the study of the harmony and the guitarist approach to the Jazz and the Jazz/Rock style, playing at the same time as lead guitarist in some local Soul and Blues bands.

When I concluded the school, I studied from self-taught various improvisation methods, beginning from piano methods to guitar methods.

When I moved to Rome in order to study Computer Science Engineering, my first and big passion since the tender age, one of my targets was the search of playing and the search of a personal method to the improvisation, inspiring myself to Scott Henderson, Allan Holdsworth and John Scofield.

Starting from 2013 I’m an active member of the Kompoz Community collaborating in international projects for indipendent artists.

Finally I’m one of the core members of the Brave New Worlds, an italian rock progressive band with three album released.

“Keep playing, keep practicing and keep playing great music!”
