SUMMARY:Matteo Mancuso
DESCRIPTION:Matteo Mancuso was born in 1996 and raised in the province of Palermo. There\, people quickly recognized him as a musical prodigy. His father\, Vincenzo Mancuso\, a well-known guitarist and producer\, guided Matteo’s introduction to the world of music. \nTeaming up with his father\, Matteo made waves in Sicily’s jazz scene\, participating in local festivals at just eleven years old. The duo explored a diverse repertoire\, spanning from Django Reinhardt to contemporary jazz. Then\, as a teenager\, Matteo pursued his passion by enrolling in a music high school\, specializing in classical guitar. \nAfter he earned his high school diploma\, he founded the Snips trio\, gaining widespread acclaim for their fusion take on classic standards. As a collaborator with Yamaha Guitars\, Matteo showcased his expertise at NAMM 2019 in Los Angeles. Additionally\, he participated as a judge at the “Young Guitar Festival” in Bangkok. 2019 also marked his venture into Russia\, conducting masterclasses in Moscow\, St. Petersburg\, and Perm. \nMancuso graduated from the Conservatory of Palermo in 2022 with a degree in jazz guitar. Then\, he immediately resumed touring and shared the stage with Al Di Meola during the Eddie Lang Jazz Festival. In 2023\, the legendary PFM invited Matteo as a guest for their new live album.  \nLater in 2023\, Mancuso joined Tommy Emmanuel on stage at the Teatro Golden in Palermo. Then\, he embarked on a summer headlining tour\, featuring previews of songs from Matteo’s eagerly anticipated debut solo album. \n“He’s a beautiful player and he is so versatile\, he plays any style\, he plays rock\, he plays Django\, pretty amazing.” – Eric Johnson \nRecommended for fans of Steve Vai\, John Scofield\, Eric Johnson and Al Di Meola.

SUMMARY:Leslie Vincent + Dylan Hicks & Small Screens
DESCRIPTION:Leslie Vincent is a prolific songwriter and jazz vocalist. She is equally at home singing the Great American Songbook\, musical theater\, and contemporary rock and pop. Thus\, she has quickly become one of the most notable voices to emerge in the vibrant Minneapolis music scene.

She’s recorded with the band Viewers Like You and performed alongside Jeremy Messersmith\, Joyann Parker\, and Patty Peterson. Her latest\, 2023’s About Last Night\, mixes jazz standards\, vintage blues\, and her own fresh originals. \nDylan Hicks & Small Screens play exploratory pop with literary ambitions and far-flung musical influences ranging from jazz to folk. The group’s latest album\, 2024’s Modern Flora\, is a set of songs arranged for an expanded nine-piece lineup. Further\, All About Jazz called it “fascinating and engaging”. Hicks\, the group’s pianist and singer-songwriter\, brings together some of the best players in Twin Cities improvised music. Here\, saxophonist Christopher Thomson\, cellist Michelle Kinney\, guitarist Zacc Harris\, bassist Dan Carpel\, and drummer Peter Hennig comprise the band.  \nRecommended for fans of Alex Chilton\, Madeleine Peyroux\, Jonathan Richman and Davina and The Vagabonds.
