ABOUT

Lux is a talented and versatile guitarist, singer, bassist, session player, songwriter, producer and guitar teacher based in London where he performs as a solo act and session musician for a number of projects both live and in the studio.
Sardinian born, throughout his career he has had the opportunity to play with numerous original bands and party bands (S.M.Aces, Tiraburiana, Tamurita, La Mouche, Ratti Matti, Dirty Deeds, Double Shot, to name a few), sometimes supporting international acts such as Gogol Bordello, eventually founding and leading his own project “Life Under X” for which he writes most of the music and lyrics.
He started playing guitar at the age of 11, and although mainly self-taught, he has accumulated a wealth of knowledge in many genres (Rock, Metal, Funk, Pop, Reggae, R&B, Soul, Latin, World Music, Jazz/Fusion) and guitar techniques.
Besides being a natural born singer he formally trained for a year until he discovered EVT (Estill Voice Training) a revolutionary singing technique that dramatically changed his voice for the better.
Lux has also collaborated with a few EDM producers and taught guitar both privately and in two important Sardinian music Academies (Accademia della Musica Fanny and Scuola Civica di Quartu).
He has also shown a huge interest in acting and took part in small shows, short films and video clips
