By Charlotte Stace
Brazilian guitarist, songwriter and producer Lari Basilio is celebrated as “one of the most exciting names in instrumental rock” by Guitar World Magazine. She began playing guitar in bands and churches in Brazil, before launching a solo career in 2011 with her self-titled five-track EP, featuring bassist Felipe Andreoli and produced by five-time Latin Grammy winner Lampadinha.
Then came her debut album, The Sound of My Room (2015), which was followed up by Far More (2019) featuring Joe Satriani and Siedah Garrett. More recently, she released Your Love (2022), and her latest album Redemption (2025), was recorded at EastWest Studios in Los Angeles with renowned collaborators including Vinnie Colaiuta, Sean Hurley, Leland Sklar and Mari Jacintho.
She’s performed at major festivals, such as the Samsung Best of Blues Festival and G4 Experience with Joe Satriani, and shared stages with artists like Steve Vai, Doja Cat and Travis Barker.
