Chengo's music comes from an imaginary dimension between the truth and the fantasy, evokes sounds and images hanged between the metropolitan area and the countryside. Songs that speak about regrets, about dreams that never become truth, about whores, about empty bottles and full ashtrays, fast love in periphery parkings, about letters of goodbye written in unknown languages....
Anything else?
Even if you don't speak Italian, you can understand "cool" when you hear it. These boys sound like Tom Waits fronting an Italian jazz act with some French too. Before Waits and Leonard Cohen, a whole slew of wacky, world-weary, jazz-drenched continentals were talk-singing their way to existential glory. Think Paolo Conte and Serge Gainsbourg. Bandonia Fly are the perfect backing for your own beatnik, cartoon tratoria. Unfortunately, they can't supply Sophia Loren. - Nick D.
