| From
swing to hard bop with a little bit of the Mississippi Delta thrown in,
Mike DiBari embraces the many sounds of classic jazz and blues guitar.
When one hears Mike play the blues, you just can't help getting that low
down feeling. His original compositions align bebop with a dash of the
contemporary but still swing like crazy. Worcester Magazine's Noah
Schaffer said, "DiBari always hits the mark regardless of whether
he's shooting from the hip on hard blues, plucking out delicate lines on a
ballad, or keeping the groove on an upbeat jump tune." While onstage
his solos command attention but to the scene at large Mike may very well
be one of Boston's best kept secrets. (read

His
trio is captivating, featuring a delicate interplay between guitar, bass
and drums. For more than three years they resided every Friday night at
Boston's Marriott Long Wharf Hotel attracting jazz fans both local and
abroad. The Swingtet is thrilling with their mini big band and jump blues
arrangements. The band has become a favorite with dancers all over New
England. Throughout, one thing is constant; Mike DiBari sure can swing!
His friend and local blues shouter, Sweet Willie D, has bestowed upon him
the title of 'Swingmaster', which he continues to live up to on
every gig he plays...

I'm very
excited and proud to announce that I'm now a VOX artist!
You can read my interview at the Vox website by

I talk about my playing, some current projects I'm
working on, and the new Vox Valetronix amp I've been
using. It's one of the best amps I've ever owned and I
still can't get over how much it sounds and feels like a
tube amp. Check it out! |
