JOHNNIE SELFISH & THE WORRIED MEN BAND (from Milano, Italy)

JS & the WMB is:

JOHNNIE SELFISH - lead vocals*
Luca THE CHIEFTAIN Bistrattin - acoustic guitars, banjo, uke, backing vocals*
Lorenzo LITTLE HARP Trentin - harp, electric guitars, one-dollar-guitar, spoons, backing vocals*
MR. TIME MACHINE - bass, backing vocals*

ADDITIONAL PLAYERS:
Diego DEAD MAN Potron - lap steel guitar, booze*
Andrea Spanò - banjo, washboard, ukulele, backing vocals*

Johnnie Selfish & the Worried Men Band were born on 2007 in Milan; in the same year our first live show at La Locomotiva (Osnago). During the first period the band had to deal with the folk and country-music classics (Johnny Cash, Roger Miller, Woodie Guthrie), re-interpreted in acoustic style and with a blues/punk attitude. We also started the difficult song-writing work, trying to couple traditional music with the words evoked by the present. In 2008 there were several changes in the band's career: we attended important blues festivals and started friendship with Italy's best blues musicians (Mauro Ferrarese, Max de Bernardi, Veronica & the Red Wine Serenaders, Fabio Treves, Big Sound of the Country Music, etc.). We also produced our first album "Jungle Rules", which includes many love songs ("Postcards & Photographs", "Love at Third Degree", "The Train from St. Petersburg"). During 2009 we played all around the Country (Venice, Genova, Florence, Bologna, Sondrio) and we were selected among the best 6 bands by Italy's most important Rock Contest (Controradio, Florence). By the end of 2009 we started the recordings for the new album "Committed". In this album we're more interested in the issues of work, politics, social and spiritual problems, that represent the very roots of folk music's origin.
At the beginning of 2010 the band broke into the European independent "blues inspired" scene by taking part to Samedan Blues Festival (Samedan, CH).

NOID (from Vienna, Austria)

noid /aka arnold haberl - musician, composer, sound artist living and working in vienna.

his music interprets the reality of sound we live in - this reality consists of imaginations, wishes, dreams and acoustical hallucinations as well as of the sound of the fan of a laptop or the wolf-tone of a cello. his sensual approach to the sound assisted by structural concepts addresses a wide range of contradictory outcome, which is always understandable as concentrate (essence), leaving out irrelevant points. consequently his musical works span from solo-works and installations to compositions for ensembles, using electronics as well as acoustic instruments. often denying the borderline between music and sound-art.

this lead him to collaborations with several choreographers, like joão fiadeiro, colette sadler, akemi takeya, philipp gehmacher, etc... and visual artists as for instance alexander schellow, heike kaltenbrunner and erik hable.

梅田哲也 / tetsuya umeda

Altering fans, televisions, and other everyday appliances, converting their functions into something utterly different, UMEDA creates objets freed from their original meanings. His works, created to suit the spaces in which they will be installed, use utterly familiar, commonplace phenomena, channeled through his clever handiness and unique spatial sensibility, to create mysterious, seemingly impossible sensations. They thereby free one from rigid perceptions constrained by preconceived ideas.
(text from EXTENDED SENSES)

Umeda puts in motion systems and processes for creating sound, and intervenes within these. His sounds are always direct consequences of the systems he sets up - the process is as transparent as possible, without PA or playback of pre-recorded material. His installations use daily, commonplace objects - fans, tin cans, bamboo bowls, buzzers - and the acoustic properties of the space.
(text from The listeing project)
