Artur Menezes

Artur Menezes (born July 15, 1985) is a Brazilian blues and blues rock guitarist, singer and songwriter, based in Los Angeles, California. He has released six albums since 2010, with the most recent EP, AM/FM (2023), being released by Black Hill Records. American magazine Guitar Player said about Menezes: "His playing is a distinctive blend of fiery, hard-rocking blues that at times borders on shred, combined with an ability to effortlessly switch gears into swinging, jazz grooves. His Brazilian roots add a unique flavor to the mix and further distinguish his playing from that of his contemporaries. Menezes’ songwriting sparkles as it switches between straight-ahead blues and funk-flavored workouts, and his vocals channel the deep emotional content of his songs as effectively as his guitar playing."
