SLIDE guitarist & songwriter Dave Arcari’s alt.blues sounds owe as much to trash country, punk and rockabilly as they do pre-war Delta blues and have been showcased via eight internationally-acclaimed solo album releases on labels including Buzz (UK), Dixiefrog (France) and Blue North (Finland).
After a successful Kickstarter campaign his latest album Still Friends was released on limited edition vinyl and CD in November 2025 landing a featured album slot on BBC Radio Scotland and a pick of the month tag from the Independent Blues Broadcasters’ Association.
A top three finalist in UK Blues Federation’s UK Blues Awards 2023 Arcari's music features in numerous BBC TV programmes as well as popular USA series The Deadliest Catch.
