Really enjoyed working on Jim Keller's "Don't Get Me Started" thing!
"Luca is one of my favorite NY guitar players. So many jams, gigs at Sunny's and other hot pits of Brooklyn soul. Born in Rome but somehow seeped in Americana. He is a joy to play with and always brings something special to the mix. - JK"
