Nublu 151

Calibro 35 delivers the funk, once again! New album out now on Nublu!

Is it possible for a band to sound so Italian and not-so-Italian at the same time? It might be surprising that an instrumental band like Calibro 35 has become one of the biggest Italian alternative acts in just few short years. The band, whose previous work was highlighted in Wax Poetics mag as “Italian soundtrack funk that sounds like Goblin recording at Stax,” have played major venues and festivals across Italy and other parts of Europe, with several trips playing the States as well. It was right after SXSW 2011 that the band stopped in New York for a week to create their new album, ‘Any Resemblance to Real Persons or Actual Facts is Purely Coincidental’ was recorded during a 5-day period at the well-known Brooklyn Recording and Mission Sound Studios. The result is a cinematic vibe with flavors of afro-funk, jazz, Motown sound and their signature Ennio Morricone and Piero Umiliani style compositions which makes this record so uniquely Italian and not Italian at the same time.
