SLIDE guitarist & songwriter Dave Arcari’s sound owes as much to trash country, punk and rockabilly as it does pre-war Delta blues. His songwriting has been showcased via eight internationally-acclaimed solo album releases.

Arcari’s latest album Still Friends was released in November 2025 following a Kickstarter campaign that reached its target in just one week.

As well as his own records, Arcari has had his music featured in numerous BBC TV programmes as well as  popular USA series The Deadliest Catch.

The ultimate validation for Arcari’s music and performance came when National Reso-Phonic Guitars launched the ‘Dave Arcari signature model’ guitar. Arcari joins an elite and exclusive group of players who have signature models and is the first – and only – musician outside the USA to be honoured by the iconic instrument maker whose name is synonymous with the development of the blues genre.
