FROM LAZIO...

Dumbo Station are a jazz rock band from Rome that began life in 2015 on the initiative of Paolo Zou (guitar), Benjamin Ventura (piano, keyboards) and Stefano Rossi (bass), later joined by Davide Savarese (drums). They soon started an intense live activity as a resident band in a jazz club located in Trastevere and in this way had the chance to collaborate with many other musicians of the Roman scene. Their influences range from jazz rock to soul and even hip hop with ample room for jam sessions and improvised solos. Among their main sources of inspiration they mention the likes of the Pat Metheney Group or Snarky Puppy and if you like bands such as Weather Report, Perigeo or Arti e Mestieri you could find some interest in their music as well. 



Tou can listen to their debut album entitled Tirana Cafè here:

FROM LAZIO...

The Piano Room is the brainchild of Roman keyboardist and composer Francesco Gazzara who wrote, arranged, performed and produced all the tracks of 2084, his fourth album so far. The album was released in 2019 on the independent label Irma Records and features a long instrumental suite divided into four parts (“Prologue 2084”, “2084 Part 1”, “2084 Part 2” and “Epilogue 2084”) that, according to the liner notes, was inspired by two novels: George Orwell’s 1984 and Boualem Sansal’s 2084: The End Of The World, both dealing with dystopian stories set in an imaginary future...



Musically, always according to the liner notes, this work is also conceived as a tribute to Anthony Phillips’ album 1984 and its electronic experiments... The pace is calm and relaxed despite the subject matter but while some passages might sound a bit tedious due to the drum machines and the lack of a real, pulsing rhythm section, the songwriting is excellent and it can be wholly appreciated by listening to the three bonus tracks containing the piano solo versions of three parts of the suite...

FROM LOMBARDIA...

A Lifelong Journey is the brainchild of Mauro Mugiati (vocals, keyboards, bass, acoustic guitars) and Brian Belloni (electric and acoustic guitars, lap steel guitar, drums), two talented musicians from Pavia both members of Beggar’s Farm, one of the best known Italian Jethro Tull’s tribute bands. In 2019 the two young multi-instrumentalists felt the need to express their own skills as composers and song-writers and self-released an interesting eponymous debut album where they blended vintage and modern sounds, inspired by historic bands from the seventies such as Genesis, Yes or Procol Harum but also by the likes of Spock’s Beard or Steven Wilson



"A Lifelong Journey" is their first self titled release, a 51 minutes long concept album that combines Hammond organ, acoustic piano and Mellotron with modern synthesizers, brilliant guitars and punchy drums, achieving a fresh different sound where the atmosphere from the golden era of prog meets nowadays innovations... (quote from their official website)
