  • Description

    Artur Menezes is a highly respected Brazilian blues rock guitarist, currently based in Los Angeles. Menezes headlined numerous festivals and toured across South America, Mexico and the UK before moving the US in 2016. He won the Gibson/Albert King Award for Best Guitarist at the Blues Foundation's 2018 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, where he also took third place in the overall competition. In 2019 he was the Grand Prize Winner in a contest promoted by Ernie Ball, winning the opportunity to perform at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival. FADING AWAY, Menezes's fifth album (his second in the US), showcases his impressive guitar skills as well as his inspired singing and songwriting, with 10 original compositions. Produced by Josh Smith, the album features guest appearances by Smith as well as Joe Bonamassa. The guitar tones are distinctive, and the production features complex arrangements, layered guitar and background vocal tracks.
