”Ramo bends notes, scrapes and chords with the technique of a vocal choir. In his hands, the guitar lights up like a symphony orchestra.”
"Michele Ramo's amazing nylon string fingerstyle guitar playing, which takes the place of a full orchestra, provides melody lines, harmony, chords and walking bass lines all at the same time. He has developed a technically dazzling, exciting style that is amazing original, incorporating a broad range of guitar styles, invoking Gypsy caravans, Sicily, Andalusia, Brazil, Harlem and many points in between."

"Michéle is a multi-talented musician. It is rare to find an artist who plays two instruments as well as he does. It amazes me about his duality - his virtuosity on two incredibly different instruments and his ability to move between the guitar and violin while performing! Plus - he is a wonderful composer!"

Michele "Mick" Ramo plays the best solo guitar in the world. Yes, he does it all. Bass, chords and melody on his 8-string guitar. He plays the best hand made nylon string guitar by luthier New York Rich DiCarlo. Come 5 to 50 years from now, these two gentleman will go down in the jazz world as innovators. Together, they already started to wake up jazz guitar players, by putting smiles on their faces after they hear great music and see a beautiful guitar.
