Lucio Menegon is a guitarist, composer, improvisor, and sonic artist. His work encompasses instrumental rock, ambient soundscape and avant free improvisation. A unifying theory of this mess has proven illusive and his many projects, recording credits and performances throughout North America and Europe are an ongoing effort to reconcile extremes and dispense with genre. 

Lucio’s film soundtrack compositions have appeared in concert, films and festivals as diverse as The Joshua Treenial to MOFOM Prague to Sundance. His ambient and sound art improvisations range from contemplative to corrosive and have appeared at festivals from Stazione di Topolo, Italy to Sonic Circuits, DC to Sound Emissions in Beijing China.

Lucio has collaborated, performed and recorded with many accomplished musicians and songwriters and his playing is highly regarded for bringing that special something to the song and music. A somewhat up to date, potentially exhaustive, greatest hits list of credits can be found here. His recording skills were honed from the get-go, waay back in the analog days, with extensive experience as a player, audio engineer and producer. He has worked in large studios as a freelancer and as a small studio owner.

Lucio is a member of the Immersion Composition Society, holds a degree in Economics, has a sharp eye for photography and loves a good story. He spent the past decade as a rural desert dweller in Joshua Tree CA with New York City and Oakland CA previous homes of note. He is currently a free-range vagabond, searching for guidance, compañeros and inspirational ore amidst the cracks of an increasingly inflexible environment.
