Blending classical and flamenco guitar with rock-inspired energy, Gladius brings a dynamic, family-friendly, electrifying performance.

Join your library for a fun electrifying performance mixing flamenco and classical guitar with a rockin' energy!

Raised in Atlanta, Georgia, pupiled by Andrés Segovia’s protégé,  and driven to obsession by Eddie Van Halen—Gladius is an award-winning composer and "accomplished classical/flamenco style guitarist" who soulfully “shreds on the electric" (Phil Keaggy), sharing the bill with Grammy winners and mesmerizing audiences nationwide with his electrifying live act since 2016.

With roots tracing back to South America (notably through the iconic Anne Marie Heinrich, who photographed 1st Lady Eva Perón, among others), Gladius began his musical journey at age 10 with an antique Argentine guitar.

1000+ shows later... Gwinnett County Georgia's 1st ever Gwinnett Superstar (awarded in 2022), shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. 

This program is offered free thank in part to funding from the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund.
