Uskebasi

They formed in 2012. Dario Piccioni on bass, Mauro Di Tomassi on guitar and Claudio Cicchetti on drums, coming from South Rome / Ostia, began a series of meetings in their rehearsal room. From these jam sessions numerous musical affinities and a sound rich in influences immediately emerge, ranging from classic and progressive rock to that more orbiting in the jazz-funk and fusion sphere. They wrote most of the songs in their eponymous first six-track EP, published in November 2013, immediately starting to circulate their music in the main Roman venues and around the capital; they are, among other things, guests of Gianluca Polverari on Radio Città Aperta and also participate in various competitions and festivals, also placing themselves as finalists of the Fara Music Festival in 2013 and opening the concert for the Greg Hutchinson Trio. Their sources of inspiration are cinema, current affairs, comics, the web, TV series, occultism, martial arts, Asian countries, Eyes Wide Shut, video games, smoking, cyberpunk, Frank Zappa, table football, records, kebabs, breaking news, airports, sci-fi, pop stars, rodents, London, Rio, polygonal ravines and much more.
