Beppe Gambetta with special guest Hayes Griffin - Terra Madre

Beppe Gambetta is a guitarist composer and folksinger who is inspired by roots music from both sides of the Ocean. A virtuoso of the acoustic Flatpicking style, he is an ambassador of art who, for more than four decades, continues to amaze us with the uniqueness and originality of his projects fueled by the curiosity that comes from encountering, traveling and researching.

In this concert Beppe will team up with Hayes Griffin, multi-instrumentalist and music educator from Columbus, OH. Hayes represents the energy and enthusiasm of the younger generation and is a new talent in the American flatpicking scene, highly respected for top placements in major guitar competitions. The concert will be a journey through the music and stories of Beppe's multicolored world and will focus particularly on the repertoire of Beppe's latest project Terra Madre, which has topped the Folk DJ and Roots Music Report charts for many months.

Terra Madre is a series of stories and dreams related to Mother Earth written, played and sung by Beppe in different languages using the universal form of folksongs. A central concept of the new CD is to affirm the “right to dream,” to seek consolation and refuge from a hostile reality. The “right to dream” is not intended as pure escapism, but also represents the artist's duty to dream of a positive future as a source of hope that helps us to survive and find the motivation to move forward through adversity.
