Emilio Bonito crafts intricate instrumental songs that fuse acoustic fingerstyle guitar with avant-garde, indie folk and pop culture influences. CBC Radio praised the Canadian guitarist’s debut single “Marth” as “a great example of contemporary fingerstyle guitar.” Bonito’s music explores themes of rumination, introspection and soul-searching. “The song ‘Chrysanthemum’ symbolizes a time of self-reflection,” explains Bonito. “I was trying to uncover deep down my identity, my values, and who will I become underneath all the petals.” RIYL Antoine Dufour, Andy McKee, Calum Graham, Don Ross, Dylan Ryche.
