Background:
Dan Arcamone’s unique approach to the guitar is rooted in jazz while exploring and incorporating other forms of music. Dan leads his own trio, which performs his original, modern jazz compositions. While his playing is often aggressive, a strong melodic concept is always present. Just Jazz Guitar called the trio “swinging, soulful and full of energy” while calling Arcamone both a “gifted composer" and "gifted guitarist” with a “relaxed yet flawless style.” In addition to fronting his own group, Dan is also commonly seen as a sideman with various groups, most notably The Damon Grant Project. Dan has performed at the Berkshire Jazz Festival, the Norwalk Jazz Festival, the Norwalk Oyster Festival, and the New Haven Arts and Ideas Festival. Dan’s guitar playing and writing can be heard extensively on his 2008 release, “Trioisms” and The Damon Grant Project's “Sonidos Nuevos”. The Dan Arcamone Trio was awarded “Best Jazz Band” by the Fairfield County Weekly’s Grand Band Slam Reader’s Poll in 2005 and 2007. MyGenProfile Generator
