A former student of Tri-C’s Jazz Studies program, Farinacci graduated from The Juilliard School in 2005 and launched his career in Japan with a run of eight albums. He released two more globally, touring the world with his band. He is a recipient of the International New Star Award.

He also gives back to the community through the gift of music.
