BANDADRIATICA (IT)

An original blend of Southern and Eastern European energy

Transported by the Adriatic winds, the BandAdriatica comes from South of Italy (Apulia) with an original and cheerful proposal that mixes the suggestions that overlook the Mediterranean Sea: the Italian “banda” - which animates the parties, the processions and funerals with its deep and ancestral sound - with the virtuosity and energy of Balkan music and the influences and suggestions of North Africa. Above all this the freedom of a jazz band.

A fantastic "Odyssey" - just like the title of the last album (2018), made by eight musicians with an extraordinary section of brass and a refined musical proposal completed by a strong stage presence enriched by fun and engaging "choreographic" movements.
A powerful and explosive result that releases a lot of energy; a charming mix where the different languages blend in a blast, able to engage the audience in a big party. In Italian style of course!

Selected at SIM Sao Paulo (BR), Babel Med (FR) and Fira Mediterrania de Manresa (ES), BandAdriatica performed also a lof of international festivals such as Zürcher Theater Spektakel (CH), Zomer van Antwerpen (BE), Vidor Fesztivál (HU), International Gipsy Festival (NL), Babel Sound Fesztivál (HU); Malta World Music Festival (MT), Festival MéditerranéO’ Confluences (FR) and many others.
