LOS ANGELES – As he serves pasta at downtown's most popular family-run trattoria, the celebrated Colori Kitchen, you might not guess that waiter Luca Spanio was nursing rock and roll dreams. Sure, there's the long black hair, and that certain bop in his step, and the graceful fingers that never drop a plate... but let us fill you in. Luca came to America to study guitar and singing at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood, and for his first CD he's recorded an all-acoustic celebration of the band he loves: Queen.

In live performance Luca sings like Freddie Mercury while picking ala Brian May on a sea blue guitar, offering sing-a-long favorites like "We Will Rock You," "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" and elegant rarities, plus a selection of original tunes.

Queen Acoustic was recently the hit of the downtown LA Hippodrome Art Walk shuttle bus, and has performed at The Derby, Charlie O’s, Rainbow Bar & Grill, Knitting Factory, Kibitz Room and The Joint. On Tuesday, July 29, there's a rare chance to enjoy the music of Queen Acoustic and the stunning cooking of chef Luigi. Members of the press are welcome to attend as Luca's guest.
