Albert Castiglia in Ruidoso

Albert Castiglia is an American blues guitarist and singer, born in New York and raised in Miami. He plays electric blues and blues rock, and his work with Junior Wells introduced him to a wider blues audience before a solo recording career that includes the albums Masterpiece and I Got Love. In 1997, he joined Junior Wells’s touring band as lead guitarist and remained until Wells’s death the following year. His own band later recorded the live album Wild and Free at the Funky Biscuit in Boca Raton. The Blood Brothers tour paired him onstage with fellow guitarist Mike Zito.
