Great blues gig last night, the Guy Tortora Band. He's Italian-Californian; his band consisted of a Hungarian on keyboard, an Italian on electric bass, and an English drummer.
GT is a brilliant and versatile guitarist, on acoustic, electric and bottleneck.
He played his own compositions and interesting arrangements of "Nobody's Fault But Mine", "Viola Lee Blues" etc.
Well worth considering for the Aghiot Festival. His website is www.guytortora.com
Originally from Pasadena, he now lives in London.
