About

Jang Senato´s music doesn`t sound like anything else on the Italian music-stage. Their style is sweet, a touch of melancholy minimal/pop with a great deal of folk and a pinch of rock. But - and that is important - it is always on the move. Their album "Diario di un Ignoto" is imbued with sweet refrains, use of untraditional musical toys/instruments and never-ending surprises. Their style is in line with Norah Jones, Nick Drake, Ennio Morricone, Luigi Tenco, Bruno Martino but not least The Beatles.

Jang Senato's music is characterized by its versatility and the international minimal feel. It's a dogged confrontation with narrowing limits and strict ideas of what mainstream music is supposed to sound like. And it is done without being too narrow or hard to understand: the catchy tunes are given high priority. As for the lyrics Gulma (senato's vox) has a lot on his mind. They are centered around the tragicomic and bizarre sides of life - always made with a twinkle in the eye.

GULMA - vox, acoustic guitar, logan keyboard
ALFREDO NUTI - guitars and synth
LOLLO - wurlitzer electric piano and synth
FILIPPO MOSCONI - bass
