Born in 1980, Marco Sfogli<\/strong> is credited as one of the most influential and\u00a0followed progressive rock and metal guitar player of the last years. He started\u00a0getting interested about music at an early age due to his parents, both members\u00a0of the world\/folk band “Nuova Compagnia di Canto Popolare”. It wasn’t until\u00a01989 when he received his first electric guitar as a gift and started to play along\u00a0with his heroes (Michael Jackson, Van Halen, Europe). In 1992 he left the guitar\u00a0to study the drums, another huge passion. “Being a drummer first and a guitarist\u00a0second, helped me a lot in terms of creativity and rhythmic knowledge.” In 1996\u00a0he left the drums because of his growing interest in guitar.<\/p>\n

Today, he’s a guitar player, composer, arranger and also mixing engineer. He\u00a0worked for a lot of artists, in 2004 he flew to Canada to record James LaBrie’s\u00a0third solo release titled Elements of Persuasion which has become a hit among\u00a0prog metal fans. Now member of the James LaBrie band, he put out his first\u00a0solo record titled \u201cThere\u2019s Hope\u201d on Feb. 15th 2008 through Lion Music.\u00a0\u201cThere\u2019s Hope\u201d was top seller in 2008 for the specialized web store \u201cGuitar Nine\u00a0Records\u201d and got a 2nd place as Best Fully Instrumental Rock Album of all\u00a0times by the website \u201cThe Top Tens\u201d. He also worked on James LaBrie\u2019s \u201cStatic\u00a0Impulse\u201d as guitar player, co-writer and additional engineer and on the latest\u00a0\u201cImpermanent Resonance\u201d.<\/p>\n

In 2011 he was invited to play at the \u201cJason Becker\u2019s Not Dead Yet\u201d festival in\u00a0Holland with other huge names like Michael Lee Firkins, Guthrie Govan, Kiko\u00a0Loureiro and Stu Hamm to name a few.<\/p>\n

In 2012 he released a second solo album through JTC records titled\u00a0“reMarcoble” which had some awesome reviews. Marco has played and\u00a0performed both on stage and in studio with a variety of artists so far including\u00a0James LaBrie, Jordan Rudess, John Macaluso, Adam Nitti, Matt Guillory,\u00a0Peter Wichers, Peter Wildoer, Ray Riendeau, Mike Mangini, Bryan Beller\u00a0and many more. In 2013 he recorded guitars for Virgil Donati\u2019s record titled \u201cIn\u00a0This Life\u201d. On March 2015 he joined the italian progressive rock legends PFM\u00a0(Premiata Forneria Marconi) making his official debut on May 1st in front of\u00a0nearly 700.000 people and on national TV.<\/p>\n
