ITALY: Marraffa/Di Giulio/Guazzaloca/Bernard/Grillini- TELL NO LIES (FONTEROSSA 2017)


The quintet is composed of five musicians of different generations and experiences who, through their activity in groups, collectives and associations, contribute to the jazz avant-garde scene since the nineties with concerts in Europe, Russia and United States. The projects they are involved with, had been released by major and independent labels (RaiRadio3, Leo Records, Amirani Records, Auand, Setola di Maiale, Black Star, Aut Records, Rudi Records and others), deserving significative awards by critics and press. The music of Tell No Lies moves between impetuous incendiary improvisations and suggestive melodic engravings, proposed in a courageous and authentic way.
