Andrea De Luca: Live In Studio Sessions, CD review (Rock Times 2025)
“Live In Studio Sessions by Andrea De Luca is a true discovery...is an impressive blend of power-slide blues, calm moments within the songs, and slow blues...The CD’s sound is excellent. In the relaxed passages you can literally hear the famous pin drop.”
Andrea De Luca: the Italian Bluesman (American Blues Scene 2022)
“Andrea De Luca is a true blues artist. He is a kindred soul to the masters of music and he will add to its rich history.”
BLUESONLINE.PL - Andrea De Luca at the Suwałki Blues Festival
“But the greatest revelation of the day turned out to be Andrea De Luca—an Italian completely devoted to the blues. His lap steel guitars produced incredible sounds, and the technique he has mastered inspires respect. Because if you have heart, you can captivate listeners even while sitting!”
Andrea De Luca, The Bluesman Training as a Guitar Hero (Zetaemme 2025)
“The nasal timbre of his voice, slightly hoarse, also makes De Luca a bluesman worth following. It was Ben Harper's music that brought him closer to the lap-steel guitar, a world that De Luca ventured into as a self-taught musician and which today is his wild card, in studio and live.”
Andrea De Luca IBC interview (Radio Città Aperta)
“Roman, born in ’81, he is a real talent. Endowed with a deadly technique and a feeling that make his music special. In his playing he blends the spare, poetic blues tradition with the energy of rock: that most sanguine strain to which entire generations of musicians owe their success.”
Andrea De Luca and Roberto Gatto for Jimi Hendrix
“From an idea by Andrea De Luca, bluesman with solid overseas collaborations, ‘A tribute to Jimi Hendrix’ is a concert dedicated to those precious and fascinating rhythmic and melodic interweavings that saw jazz merge into the iconic din of an era and explode into the ‘Hendrix’ phenomenon: a true revolution in modern music history."
Born and raised in Rome, Andrea De Luca began his musical journey performing regularly in the city's venues, such as the late Big Mama. His early influences were Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Johnny Winter. After discovering the Lap Steel guitar thanks to Ben Harper, Andrea honed his self-taught skills, mastering this instrument alongside the traditional six-string guitar.
Andrea's unique style blends a gritty and aggressive vocal tone with refined guitar technique, particularly evident in his masterful use of the Lap Steel. This instrument, rarely seen in the hands of Italian artists, has become Andrea's trademark, allowing him to explore uncharted sonic territories.
In recent years, Andrea has intensified his recording and live performance activities. Memorable performances include the showcase concert on March 25, 2022, at Studio Miriam in Rome, opening for Johnny Winter in 2014, and Victor Wooten in 2018.
He plays instruments from renowned brands like Bill Asher's Electro Hawaiian, with whom he has developed a relationship of mutual affection and respect since their first meeting in 2017 at Bill's workshop in Los Angeles, California.
Andrea De Luca has now been touring pretty much everywhere for twenty years developing his rare style, bluesy vocals sound, incorporating old and new with his multiple guitars and Lap Steel guitars.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, Andrea moved to Sardinia, his wife's homeland, and participated in renowned Sardinian music festivals such as Rocce Rosse Blues, Sant'Anna Arresi Jazz, and Musica Sulle Bocche.
Andrea personally handles all stages of his album production, preferring to self-produce with the help of his friend and drummer Luca Trolli, with whom he has shared a passion for music for years.
Deeply connected to his fans, Andrea loves interacting with them during and after concerts. Among contemporary artists he admires and would like to collaborate with are Ben Harper, John Mayer, Joe Bonamassa, and Eric Gales.
In February 2024, Andrea performed a duet with blues legend Jimmy Burns at Rosa's Lounge in Chicago, leaving the audience speechless with their chemistry and musical prowess.

CRY FOR PEACE CHILD (Official Single Video)
by: ANDREA DE LUCA
(C) 2025 BLUES NOTE RECORDS
Released: 2025-01-06
This song is a heartfelt cry against the horrors of war, inspired by a deeply moving podcast episode featuring a war medic in the midst of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
The idea for "Cry for Peace Child" was born when Andrea listened to the heartbreaking tale of a mother carrying her two injured children to a hospital, who was dangerously out of medication.
A toddler, suffering severe injuries, had to undergo amputation without painkillers, while his mother and brother looked on helplessly.
As Andrew, a father of two young children, reflected on this tragic scenario, he felt an overwhelming desire to create a song that resonated with the pain and suffering caused by the war.
