Defined “Italian Fingerstyle Master” by Acoustic guitar Magazine, Alberto Lombardi is an eclectic guitar virtuoso. He effortlessly goes from an acoustic tour with Tommy Emmanuel- or recently teaching at his international guitar camps – to producing his rock record with Bruce Springsteen and Rolling Stone’s legendary sound engineer Bob Clearmountain (“Home” 2020) In this Solo Show Lombardi mixes these two souls in a fascinating and unusual way. He plays on the acoustic his arrangements of great classics from the Italian and international tradition (from Volare to the Beatles, Sting, Stevie Wonder..) to rock and roll greats like Supertramp and Jeff Beck, and then he grabs the electric to color with melodic and lush guitar solos.
His guitar style is very personal, derived from the diverse musical experiences Alberto has in rock, pop and jazz as a session player and record producer. Incorporating acoustic fingerpicking, flatpicking, some looping and electronics, electric soloing and singing, Alberto can transform a single guitar into an orchestra. His own instrumental compositions and full blown rock songs complete the picture of a unique live experience.
He also played major festivals like All Star guitar Night(USA) , International Guitar Night. (23 shows touring Germany, 2018), Chet Atkins festival (USA) and all Italian Guitar Festivals like Sarzana, Soave etc.
As a teacher Alberto has been invited to teach at Tommy Emmanuel’s guitar camp Roma in 2025 and many other workshops and masterclasses, hosted his own guitar camp in Tuscany, released four instructional videos forStefan Grossman’s guitar videos label, teaching some of his most popular arrangements and some creative guitar technique.
“Alberto… I listen to your CD, thank you! It sounds beautiful and your playing and arrangements are very powerful. I wish you much success !! Big admiration to you”— Tommy Emmanuel
“the record is killing, such great musicianship! Fantastic guitar player! ”—Nile Rodgers
