“If I could play like Vicki, I’d stay home and entertain myself.” Steve Vai

Touring from the USA, virtuoso guitarist Vicki Genfan is an artist whose music reaches out and touches the soul of all who hear her.

Playing her own percussive technique of “slap-tap” acoustic guitar, Vicki Genfan has been showcased as one of the world’s top guitarists at festivals such as The International Montreal Jazz Festival, Germany’s Open Strings Guitar Festival, Italy’s Soave Guitar Festival and hundreds of venues and Performing Arts Centers across the US and abroad.

Drawing from folk, jazz, pop, soul and world music, Vicki redefines ‘singer/songwriter culture.’ With a mastery of the acoustic guitar that borders on pure alchemy, audiences are mesmerized by the waves of sound Vicki creates with just two hands and her voice. Using 29 alternate tunings and the percussive technique she calls ‘slap-tap’, you’ll find the addition of her pure, expressive vocals that dig deep and stir the heart to be the perfect accompaniment on many of her songs.
