Guitarist, composer, arranger, content creator
I was born in 1984 and was introduced to music at a very young age, thanks to a family that nurtured my passion from the beginning.
At 16, I fell in love with the electric guitar, inspired by the atmospheric soundscapes of Pink Floyd and the soulful blues of Stevie Ray Vaughan.
In 2003, I began performing regularly, gaining valuable experience in both studio and live environments. I played hundreds of gigs across Italy with different projects and bands.
In 2005, I enrolled at the Lizard Academy in Fiesole (Florence), studying under guitarist Osvaldo Di Dio. I graduated in 2009 with top honors (30/30) and was recognized as one of the academy’s top students.
In 2015, I joined The Classic Rock Show for their UK tour, performing in prestigious venues across Britain. That same year marked the beginning of a major chapter in my career: I became a member of Brit Floyd, the world’s most acclaimed Pink Floyd tribute show.
Since then, I’ve performed over 1,300 concerts worldwide with Brit Floyd, playing in some of the most iconic venues in the world, including the Royal Albert Hall (London), Radio City Music Hall (New York), Red Rocks Amphitheatre (Colorado), the Greek Theatre (Los Angeles), the Ancient Theatre of Taormina, and on tours across Japan, Europe, and North America.
In addition to touring, I work in the studio recording guitar tracks for artists and producers, and I’m the creator of Edo’sBackstage, a YouTube channel where I share insights into professional musicianship, tour life, gear, and the creative process.
As a solo artist, I released my first instrumental single "On the Ferry Through the North” in 2020, followed by “The Theory of Everything” in 2021 — both showcasing my personal musical language and cinematic sound.
During my 10 years with Brit Floyd, I’ve had the privilege of performing alongside legendary musicians such as Harry Waters (Roger Waters’ son), who toured with us for over 30 shows, Scott Page, Durga McBroom, Machan Taylor, Roberta Freeman, Graham Broad, PJ Olsson, and Alan Parsons.
I proudly endorse:
Fractal Audio Systems, G66, Dragoon Custom Speaker Cabinets, Pereira Guitars, Maton, Arturia, Alclair In-Ear Monitors, and Jim Dunlop,
and I collaborate regularly with both Gibson and Fender.
EDO's BACKSTAGE
WELCOME TO MY WORLD
Edo’sBackstage is my YouTube channel, dedicated to sharing what it really means to be a professional musician today.
Through behind-the-scenes stories, gear insights, practice methods, and real-life experiences on tour and in the studio, I try to offer a raw, honest, and in-depth look into the daily life of a working guitarist.
The channel is currently in **Italian**, and it's aimed especially at young musicians and guitar enthusiasts who want to better understand the realities of the music world — far beyond the stage lights.
Whether I'm talking about how I prepare for a world tour with Brit Floyd, breaking down guitar tones and setups, or reflecting on the challenges of this profession, Edo’sBackstage is where I share my personal journey — without filters.
