19.01.2022 Our good friends from Santa Taranta will be doing some gigs in Brisbane soon including this one which we’ve arranged. It’s a free concert with an Italian music jam after. Food is great as well at Papa Rossi restaurant.
18.01.2022 One postiive to come out of this crazy time is that it has given Zumpa, the band, the chance to prepare its first recording! It's been an exciting time trying to coordinate 6 musicians to play from a rough guide track through to individual recording sessions. Our sound engineer has been none other the amazing André Bonetti, also nose flute playing extraordinaire percussionist. For our artwork we engaged the incredible skills of Dany Avanzini to prepare an original artwork por...traying the emotion of Italy. The album is called 'Sette Belli'... a little play on the most valuable card, the Sette Bello, in the Italian card game of Scopa. We have seven tracks with some original and classics included. We hope it will be out in September with the advent of springatimea. Look out for the album and launch events around Brisbane. Thanks Cristina Campo Di Stan, Gareth Mewesician, Innes Campbell and Benja King. More details to come soon! See more
18.01.2022 Celebrate Italian national day tonight with some good ole' tarantellas and a canzone or two. Also some lovely Irish flavoured music from Alan Kelly and Steve Cook The BUg - Alan Kelly & Steve Cook, Zumpa (celebrating Italian National Day)
17.01.2022 Only 2 more sleeps until Zumpà's first album launch in Brisbane. Tuesday 17 November 2020 at New Farm Bowls Club. It's been an absolute pleasure to be a part o...f this very talented and vibrant collection of Brisbane musicians - Benja King, Cristina Campo Di Stan, Gareth Mewesician, Innes Campbell and André Bonetti (also our recording engineer). It's been a 30 year journey since I started replaying the music from the 'old country'. My dad made me do it... since I was age 10. It's sad that he didn't make it to hear the fruits of his 'lavore'. But as Papa would say - 'sempre avante' - always forward. Click on the following for more details: Zumpa at The BUg - Album Launch - Sette Belli.
