About:

San Francisco native Ricardo Silvestri is a proud preferred vendor for his hometown’s City Hall Weddings and other events. He’s excited to perform for you as a solo guitarist, seamlessly fusing classical, Latin, jazz, pop, singer-songwriter, and electronica genres in an enticing, exotic mix.

Ricardo also performs with several premier jazz, rock and blues bands, as well as in local orchestras. In addition to being a professional guitarist, upright bassist, vocalist, and music producer, Ricardo is also a DJ with an ear for integrating the present, future, and past in his mixes.

Having been involved with such diverse groups as Cirque Du Soleil, Nova Vista Symphony, Palo Alto Philharmonic, and Saratoga Symphony, as well as groups ranging from the Ry Kihn Band (of the Greg Kihn Band) to blues guitarist John Garcia (John Lee Hooker, B.B. King), Ricardo now performs classical music, American jazz standards, rock, blues, and country with his own Bay Area-based performers such as PBS award-winning tenor Pasquale Esposito, French impresario Laurent Fourgo, and Vintage Noise.
