Born in 1974, Filippo “Phil” Cavalieri grew up in an era where jazz-rock was at it's peak. His formative musical years took place in Ferrara (Italy) where he played in the clubs with all kinds of bands playing everything from Jimi Hendrix to Barry White. As he was learning his instrument, Phil was influenced by Santana, Jerry Garcia, Jimi Hendrix, and the guitarist of the classic rock band of the seventies. Even though Cavalieri claims to be more of a blues-rock player, it was the influence of jazz that led him to the style of playing and composing in a different way of look at the improvisation. Phil finished school and then moved to Holland where he studied and played with different jazz players , like Jan Kuiper, Winfred Buma and Leonardo Amuedo and attended the workshop of John Abercombie, Charlie Haden, Scott Henderson, Gary Willis, John Taylor, Tuck Andrews.
