AzzBand​ (ʌtsbænd)

​​

The proyect 'aZzband was born in 2008. The band unites musicians from Italy, Venezuela, Australia, Germany and Spain that come together in Valladolid (Spain).

 

From jazz to tarantella, tango to fanfare, uruguayan candombe to Argentine Murga, 'aZzBand dinstinctly interprets and mixes the music of the world, presenting songs and music that speak of dreams, journeys and union in what, for most of its members, is a foreign land.

 

The ensemble uses the improvisation of Jazz, attempting nonetheless to stimulate the emotions and imaginations of any type of audience: including one not entirely formed of music connoisseurs. That's why this is not a classic Jazz Band, but an "Azz Band". The missing "J" reveals an added quality, one that allows greater freedom of execution, and avoids the groups "anchoring"itself any particolar musical genre.

 

For the past years, the band has participated in numerous events and festival,in Spain, around Europe and in Australia as well, Has been invited to play both in world music and jazz festivals (La Ghironda Festival-Italy, Festival Jazz de Castilla y Leon-Spain, Faccetten Festival-Germany, Illawarra Folk Festival, Cygnet Folk Festival...) with great reviews and audience feedback.
