Iago Banet was born in Galicia, in the north-west of Spain. At the age of seventeen, he found a classical guitar at home and began to play. He has since performed in multiple bands, recording and touring across Spain and the UK showcasing his immense talent via styles including gypsy jazz, blues rock, country, dixieland swing, tex-mex, pop and folk.In 2014, Banet moved to London in search of new avenues, challenges and projects to develop his career. There, he joined bands including JFK Blue and The Boo-Hoos, before forming ColorColour (formally Deep Blue Sea), with whom he has recorded and toured two albums.Since 2018, Banet has been developing his career as a solo fingerstyle guitarist, inspired by the likes of Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel. A year later, he recorded his first solo album, “A Sunset Wine”. In 2020, he launches his second work, simply entitled “Iago Banet. One man with his guitar”. The album features seven original compositions and two special arrangements: a traditional Galician folk song ‘Muiñeira de Chantada’, and a Van Morrison classic, ‘Moondance’. Banet will be touring the album throughout 2021.
