Filippo Meloni

As a professional session guitarist, there is nothing better than laying down some smooth guitar tones and rhythmic riffs, whether that be performing to a crowd or in the studio recording and writing. Music has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, all the way back to Cagliari, Italy, where I was born and raised. During these formative years, alongside studying classical guitar, private tuition in jazz guitar particularly fuelled my passion for modern styles, with the music of Jimi Hendrix, Santana, Led Zeppelin and Pat Metheny providing a window to the fascinating world of rock, jazz and blues.
Nowadays, as a freelance session guitarist and guitar tutor, I have a wealth of experience in live music, studio recording, session playing and songwriting and enjoy the versatility and creativity of working across a wide range of musical genres, from pop and country, to acoustic folk and rock.
I have worked with some superb musicians and have performed for a whole host of events and venues, including (Cargo, Tobacco Dock, The Water Rats). I have a regular list of other musicians whom I work with – a combination of session work and live performances – and I also offer one-to-one guitar tuition.
I use a different range of guitars and amps (Gibson Les Paul Standard, Fender Stratocaster and Taylor acoustic guitar) in order to play a wide range of styles and genres as needed. My guitar playing is a mixture of velvet tones, fiddly rock and roll riffs and bluesy textures

I am friendly, very easy to work with and above all, super passionate about what I do.
