The highly acclaimed and very popular Chiswick based guitarist Antonio Forcione, has joined with the singer Sarah Jane Morris - who had a number one hit with the Communards in 1980 - to release a new album on October 26 entitled Compared To What.

Together they are touring all over the UK and Europe

Forcione is an artist in every sense of the word, hailed as one of the most charismatic, unconventional guitarists at large in the musical world today. With a host of international awards under his belt, this eclectic composer never ceases to stun his audience on stage, leading him to be referred to as the ‘Jimi Hendrix of the acoustic guitar”. His solo performances never fail to bring the house down, let alone when he is performing in duo, as a trio, or with his quartet of international musicians. He breaks the mould of most conventional guitar sounds, be it in the field of jazz, Spanish, African, Brazilian or improvised music, with a ferocious virtuosity, passion and humour.

He has shared the stage and recorded with some of the world’s most accomplished musicans.
