  • Description

    BEPPE GAMBETTA returns with this brilliant new solo recording, "SHORT STORIES". In discussing the making of "Short Stories", Beppe says, "I found myself singing in four different languages, composing new melodies or cross-picking licks, and developing an imaginary global picking path that moves from Giuseppe Verdi to Doc Watson."

    "The message is that no matter how times change and how uncertain they become, the best response for a musician is to press on with the art. Fiddler Jones, in Edgar Lee Masters' 1915 Spoon River Anthology, never turned down a gig and I'd like to think that we are all Fiddler Jones in our own way."

    "A virtual United Nations of influences: Italian, Ukrainian, Appalachian, Sardinian, Celtic". - Acoustic Guitar

    "One of the best flatpickers anywhere." - The Huffington Post
