Live in Luni

Last week I played a wonderful show in the Roman Amphitheatre of Luni, a small town in Liguria (very close to Tuscany). It was special — not only the setting was beautiful, but Pat Mastelotto was invited to take part. He played drums and percussion during my set, joining Alessandro Inolti, Eugene and yours truly on stage. I don’t think I had ever played my solo material live with Pat before. About time, considering he has contributed to every solo album I’ve made! I wish we had more time to rehearse, though. We just ran through the songs a couple of times on the morning of the show. We did our best. Also, we had another guest joining us for the last three songs of the set — Lorenzo Eva (from the band NuovoNormale) on trumpet. He played beautifully.

Here’s a soundboard recording of “Lost + Found” (a song from my latest album Dormiveglia), also featuring Lorenzo.

I was thinking of releasing a Bandcamp EP with the whole live set. Would you be interested in that? [EDIT]: I’ve uploaded it!

And here are some pictures from the show.

A wonderful couple of days. I wish we could do this more often!

Speak soon.
