Ou (with Amy Denio) - Pices Crisis
SKU
Spoot 40
"Everyone is in seventh heaven with the newly born sounds of OU!
American producer and multi-instrumentalist Amy Denio has the pleasure of announcing the release of one of the most delightful recordings in the recent history of time.
OU is a sextet based in Rome, Italy; the three women are Sardinian, the three men pure Romans, and together they take you on a mediterranean joyride of vivacious original compositions with a folk sensibility, jazz with fiercely funky rhythms, topped with gorgeously lush vocals, sung in Sardinian, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and English.
Composer/trumpetist/ukelelist/vocalist Ersilia Prosperi corralled a group of friends and founded OU in Rome in 2012.
Amy was in Rome in June 2013, playing a concert on her birthday. That evening, Ersilia presented Amy a red heart-shaped balloon with a CD dangling on the bottom containing that day's OU rehearsals. Amazing music, and the best birthday present ever!
Amy agreed to produce the project in Seattle. The other musicians are Sabrina Coda (alto & soprano sax, voice); Martina Fadda (voice); Luca Venitucci (piano, Hammond B3 organ, Fender Rhodes, voice); Claudio Mosconi (electric bass, voice), and Cristian De Fabritiis (drums, vibraphone, glockenspiel, voice)."
