Francesco Giannico is an Italian musician about ambient electroacoustic folk music. He lives near Taranto, in the southern part of Italy. He's graduated in "Musicology and Musical Heritage".

He published his works for many labels such as Afe Records, Hysm, Akoustic Desease, Muertepop and Porter Records.

His musical approach is better described as a cinematic journey which pushes the boundaries of digital media even further by incorporating smooth melodies and gentle textures. More canonical instruments such as guitar and piano are constantly present into Francesco Giannico's music, within interrupted structures or long and dreaming sonorous carpets.

During the end of 2010 and the beginning of 2011 he created with Alessio Ballerini the network “Archivio Italiano dei Paesaggio Sonori” to promote and diffuse the soundscapes culture
