Lucien Nocelli (born April 21, 1965) is an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He released his first major album, Open Sky, on December 11, 1986, with his jazz fusion trio Lucien Nocelli and the Jazz Experience.

Nocelli released Lucien Nocelli and the Jazz Experience, a three-song jazz fusion compilation on April 22, 1993 which landed him a contract with Woodrich Records and airplay nationwide. He has written and recorded a CD Single, "Message for Peace/Electric Train" (2005) and released the album Deal with It (2008). The album blends rock, jazz, and pop.

Early years

Born in Belleville, New Jersey, Nocelli was raised in Clifton, New Jersey, by his father, Lucien Nocelli Sr. and his mother, Maryann Nocelli, who purchased Nocelli's first instrument, a half-sized red acoustic guitar. After the infatuation with the instrument itself, he began to listen to music which inspired him to pick it up and learn to play.

After hearing "Come Together" by the Beatles on the radio, he was hooked, as it was John Lennon that inspired him to pick up the instrument, as well as Glen Campbell's song "Southern Nights and a song called "Ride Captain Ride". Soon after hearing "Come Together", however, it was his Beatles album collection that began to take over.

Nocelli's first guitar knowledge was received by his grandfather, Tony Francischetti, who played banjo, guitar, and violin. After persuading his mother to take him to a local music store, he acquired a Lyle guitar, which was a Gibson SG knockoff, and a Kustom Guitar Amplifier. Soon after he began taking music lessons, often locking himself in his bedroom for hours to study his playing. He traded the guitar and amp for a Burgundy ES335 Gibson Guitar and Yamaha Amplifier.

Nocelli attended Clifton High School and graduated in 1984.

Musical career

At the age of 16, Nocelli formed his first band, Destiny, with his cousin Steve Francischetti, who was the drummer while Nocelli was lead vocalist and lead guitarist. Destiny toured all over the Tri-State area, playing at colleges, high schools, dances, churches and private events, performing rock covers by Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Doobie Brothers, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Thin Lizzy, Eric Clapton, Dire Straits, and the Grateful Dead.

By the age of 17, Nocelli's musical interest shifted to jazz fusion. His began to Chick Corea, Al Di Meola, and Larry Carlton. He began studying with a jazz teacher, who taught him that he needed to learn straight jazz before fusion. Nocelli co-formed a fusion band, World of Difference. Continuing his education, he studied with Tal Farlow.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}} He focused solely on jazz fusion for the next 12 years. He purchased a Heritage Jazz guitar and toured the New York City Jazz circuit with his trio, Lucien Nocelli and The Jazz Experience.

Nocelli wrote an advanced guitar method book, Modes in Motion: The Nocelli Guitar Method, and began to teach advanced guitar students at Von Bartheld School for Music in Ridgewood, New Jersey. Soon after he opened the School for Musical Instruction, which remained in business for 6 years. Nocelli formed Bebop Gypsies, whichi released one album before the group disbanded. He briefly joined his cousin's group, Test Infection, an industrial metal band which released a few songs and toured live.

Throughout the years Nocelli toured off and on portraying John Lennon in the off Broadway production, Beatlemania.

In 2005 he signed with Infinite Trend Productions and released "Message for Peace/Electric Train" and Acoustic Lullabys (2006). His album Deal with It was released in 2008, followed by EvoLucien (2011), a concept jazz fusion album.

Nocelli has two sons from his first marriage. Nocelli married Sheri Nocelli on October 25, 2003. Their son Adrian Robert Nocelli was born on August 18, 2003, and their daughter Luciana Virginia Nocelli was born May 1, 2007.
