Davide Pannozzo is an Italian-born modern blues artist, guitarist, singer-songwriter and educator based in New York City. His music starts from the blues but doesn’t stay within its boundaries: he treats it as a living language — flexible, personal, built to speak to the present. At the center is the guitar, not as a display of skill but as a voice: melodic, spacious, conversational. Every note serves the song.

He moved to New York in 2016 and cut his teeth on the city’s most unforgiving stages — including The Bitter End, the Greenwich Village room where a changeover lasts ten minutes and nobody waits for you. Nine years later, that room came full circle: he appears on guitar on David Garfield’s Live at The Bitter End (2026), recorded on that same stage with Steve Ferrone, Randy Brecker, Brandon Fields and Lenny Castro.

The stage is where his music lives. In August 2026 he brought his band to the legendary Iridium in Times Square — the club made famous by Les Paul’s Monday nights. His previous album was produced by Steve Jordan and Will Lee, and along the way he has shared stages and studios with Robben Ford, George Benson, Kirk Fletcher, Oz Noy, Matt Schofield, Ricky Peterson and Oleta Adams, with airplay on SiriusXM.

His latest single, The Subway Song — Steve Ferrone on drums — is a love letter to the city that adopted him. A new album, written between New York and the road, is on the way.

Offstage, more than 60,000 guitarists follow his playing, and thousands more have studied with him through GUITARlab, his modern blues academy — an audience that doesn’t just listen, but shows up.
