Slide guitarist and songwriter Dave Arcari’s sound owes as much to trash country, punk and rockabilly as it does pre-war Delta blues and his songwriting has been showcased via seven internationally-acclaimed solo album releases.
Following a successful Kickstarter campaign Arcari’s eighth album Still Friends is set for release on 7 November 2025 pre-empted by a series of monthly single releases of track from the album.
As well as his own records, Arcari has had his music featured in numerous BBC TV programmes as well as popular USA series The Deadliest Catch.
The ultimate validation for Arcari’s music and performance came when National Reso-Phonic Guitars launched the Dave Arcari signature model guitar. Arcari joins an elite and exclusive group of players who have signature models and is the first – and only – musician outside the USA to be honoured by the iconic instrument maker whose name is synonymous with the development of the blues genre.
