Add or read comments
Boston-based Newpoli brilliantly re-imagines the lively tarantella and other sounds of Southern Italy and around the Mediterranean.
UK world music magazine Songlines calls Newpoli "A brilliant outfit...who grab southern Italian traditional music by the neck and recast it in a dramatic style."
The band celebrates the release of an excellent new album of traditional and original songs, Mediterraneo, with a big show as part of the New York Gypsy Festival at Drom, 85 Avenue A in the East Village on Friday night October 5th at 9 pm.
Newpoli's Carmen Marsico joins us to introduce the album and contrast and compare some of the traditional source songs with Newpoli's inventive re-imaginings.

From the event web page http://tiny.cc/delgres-joespub18:
When Napoleon reinstated slavery in the Caribbean Island of Guadalupe in 1802 many people were exiled or fled, some of which went to New Orleans. It is from this perspective that Delgres, made up of Pascal Danae, Rafgee and Baptiste Brondy, revisits the blended songs, dances and tears of the long-lost, drifting souls of New-Orleans. The powerful trio - a musical missing link between French, caribbean and US cultures - was formed by Pascal Danaë, Baptiste Brondy and Rafgee in 2015. That same year Delgres was awarded Best World Music Album at the Victoires de la musique (French “Grammy“ awards). Delgres’ sound is soaked in blues. though urban and open to the world, and sounds somewhere between Ali Farka Toure, Tinariwen and the Black keys.

happy to be home and able to listen LIVE :) loving the Gypsy vibe! my Mom's birthday is on 9/24 (she would have been 93); she was ALWAYS so proud of her Gypsy heritage (she had no problem with the word "Gypsy" -- did not see it as an insult or anything -- but totally understood why some preferred the term "Roma") | |
