A dreamy, drifting across forever skies quality inhabits Francesca Guccione’s wonderful musical creations like they were made for each other. A heavenly journey touched by a sensitive, introspective enquiry playing out towards a cosmic tomorrow. Searching arpeggios populate the narration forming the beginning Parallel Echoes contrasted next by the sheer intensity of Ganymede as it

Welcome to Magazine Sixty, Even Drones. Your debut album Ethics for Freund Der Familie is an explosive ride through the sights and sounds of everything you love about music exploring influences from across the spectrum. How important is it for you as artists to carve out your own individual path while not sounding like everyone

This is a sublime album expanding the beauty of being with all of its inherent light and shade. Words speak in-between the tense, atmospheric piano and guitars as they gently, poignantly strum across the horizon of extensive imaginations by quoting past and present experiences.

Jazz is as much about defiance as it is about exploring the human soul for me. Defiant simply because it is still here, existing despite all the odds while teasing out communication between emotions in its own uniquely, certain language. Beersheba touches all of those edges supplying a taste of what’s instore from his forthcoming

I’ve listened to this song a number of times today and each play becomes more involving than the last. I also miss good songs and the impact that the soul inspiring qualities contained within the human voice can have.
