Olivier Di Placido

Olivier Di Placido is a self-taught musician who performs on electric guitar.He's curently living in Berlin.

His approach is mainly focused on the manipulation and the use of each elements of the guitar as an instrument (magnetic pick-up, steal strings, electricity, unscrewed neck...)

By adding few objects to this primitive set up, he's able to create natural distortion, pitch, tremolo, flanger effect.... without using any electronic pedals.

he develops a world of tensions and ruptures with an approach to the guitar that is both minimal and noisy.

As an improviser, he has played on concert with many musicien as well as solo performance in Germany, France, Switzerland, Poland, Sweeden and Italy.
