ALLAN KRAINSKI

sessions lessons touring

Hello, I’m Allan Krainski, a professional guitarist based in Brasil. For over 20 years, I’ve crafted a versatile career as a performer, session musician, and teacher, combining the warmth of classic guitar tones with the precision and flexibility of modern digital tools.

I perform across genres—blues, jazz, rock, pop, funk, Brazilian music—and have shared the stage with acclaimed bands and artists, both in live concerts across Brazil, and Europe.

As a session guitarist, I deliver high-quality remote and in-studio recordings tailored to each project, offering fast, flexible, and professional results.

I’ve been dedicated to teaching for over 15 years, guiding students of all levels in technique, improvisation, and musical expression.

Whether on stage, in the studio, or teaching, my goal is the same: to create meaningful music that connects with people, inspires creativity, and brings projects to life.
