Beppe Gambetta is an Italian guitarist, vocalist and composer who found a way to make Italian and American traditions speak together with one voice. Born in the seaport city of Genova and raised on American flatpicking, he developed a unique captivating guitar and performance style.

From a young acoustic guitarist channeling Italian and American folk and bluegrass into a signature style, he became a singer, composer, arranger, sound engineer and concert producer. At age 65 he has added one more title: Poet. It turns out he has a lot to say about roots, role models, the road and artistic freedom.

Beppe is beloved all over the world, gaining new fans and friends with every performance and every new recording. Where The Wind Blows is no exception and may be his best one yet. In 2019 Beppe was awarded with the title of “Genoa Ambassador To The World” by the Genoa Mayor Marco Bucci.

Here’s what others have to say about Beppe:

“…and he expresses himself in a voice of unhurried warmth and passion.” (Alan Tigay, World Listening Post)

“His incredible versatility combined with his charm and engaging stage presence make Beppe’s concerts evenings of high quality music and relaxed entertainment. Overriding all else, however, is the brilliance of his talent.” (Cornish Guardian)

“Though he's shown over the years that he can keep pace with the Tony Rices and Dan Crarys of the world, it is Gambetta's understated elegance as a flatpicker that has set him apart and made him an in-demand partner the worldover.” (Sing Out!)

“…spinning a thick weave that sometimes calls to mind what a duet by Doc Watson and Leo Kottke might sound like.“ (Mike Joyce, The Washington Post)

“In the end Gambetta’s originals offer some of the most intriguing listening for their amazing virtuosity, pleasing tunefulness, and beyond-category pedigree. He’s truly a man of the world.“ (Roger Levesque, Penguin Eggs)
