Italy’s Guitar Republic Comes to The Ellen Theatre

“Put three musical Einsteins together and what do you get? Guitar Republic, a group that could literally change the way we look at contemporary acoustic guitar.” – Request Productions.

Before GUITAR REPUBLIC, Pino Forastiere, Stefano Barone and Sergio Altamura were Italy’s most successful solo acoustic guitarists, friends from different parts of the country united by a love of the guitar and a passion to explore new musical territory. Combining their talents (Pino’s melodies, Stefano’s rhythms and Sergio’s experimentation), GUITAR REPUBLIC went from one song to a wildly praised CD to concerts throughout Italy and now — a highly-successful tour of North America.
