Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
2008 Guitar Player Magazine Readers Choice Award for Best World Music Guitar Player //
Since the mid '70s, Bensusan's name has been synonymous with guitar genius. Working in an unusual DADGAD tuning, Pierre's compositions are passionate, tender and joyful. His unique music combines ethnic folk themes and classical melodies, free and fusion styles, Latin and North African rhythms, and vocals in the jazz scat tradition.
Born in Algeria and raised in Paris, he has toured throughout the world and released 11 albums, gaining a reputation as one of today's most distinctive and influential finger-style guitarists.
