About this Event

SHIJO X



The Shijo x started in Bologna (Italy) in 2009 as a duo formed by Davide Verticelli

and Laura Sinigaglia. On the same year their first album "one minute

before" was released by Ideasuoni. In 2011 two new members joined the

band: Federico Adriani on drums and Federico Fazia on bass guitar. In 2012

Bombanella dischi released the second album "…if a night" with a more

trip-pop sound. In 2015 Andrea Crescenzi replaced Federico Fazia as bass

player. Shijo x performed numerous live concerts in Italy and Europe, they were

chosen to play at Liverpool sound city 15 and Open Air berg 14 and traveled to

Sao Paolo, Brazil, for the Comites international party live show. They also

played as opening band for Kaiser chiefs and Paolo Nutini during the Italia

Wave Festival 11 (they won best band from Abruzzo). Their third album will be

released in 2017, it was recorded in Bombanella studio during 2016 and mastered

by Jim Blackwood in the U.S.A. The sound, always experimental and very

personal, drifts away from the trip-pop atmosphere of the second album to define

a much stronger signature style.
