About this Event
Jazz Festival 2026 - The Band
Luca Gianassi Trio
Born and raised in Italy, Luca is a Birmingham-based guitarist, composer, and educator.
Moving to London, the jazz scene helped him to develop a fusion voice on the instrument, which has become part of his unique approach to the guitar.
He has extensive live-performance experience, including international festivals and venues in this country, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal and has performed at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, Symphony Hall in Birmingham, and the Lava Jazz Festival in Portugal.
He remains very active in Birmingham as an educator and academic mentor.
He led a Masterclass in Jazz at the 2025 Zhejiang Band Competition in China, where he was also one of the four official judges, joining band mates from RBC to provide demonstration performances.
For Fest26, having led the Guitar Workshop during in the morning, Luca will be joined by Thomas Marsh, (Bass), and Reece Downton, (Drums), to launch the afternoon sessions.
