Brazilian guitarist Diego Figueiredo (pronounced fig-a-ray-doe) lives in, with, and for the music. Some people are simply meant to be musicians. Diego is one. He began playing music at four years old. By the age of twelve he had already attracted a local following, and when he was fifteen, he was drawing huge crowds around Brazil. Diego is now considered among the worlds greatest (jazz) guitarists. His skills on his instrument are matched only by his ability to move freely between styles, and his sublime technique is paired with an exquisite ability to vary his playing so that it radiates with unwavering excitement. George Benson says Diego is one of the greatest guitarists Ive seen in my whole life.
