La Cantina di Ermete are a progressive folk band from Ospitaletto, a
town in the province of Brescia. Their roots date back to 1977 when
they started as a simple folk group proposing original compositions
in Eastern Lombard dialect. Along the years the line up went through many
changes and the band had a good live activity but, except for some MC
demos and some sparse pieces released in compilation albums with
other artists, for a long time there wasn’t any official release
with their own music available. In fact, De rìder e de piànzer (There
is to laugh and to cry), is their first official album to date I’m
aware of and was digitally self-released in 2021 with a line up
featuring Annalisa Alborghetti (vocals, percussion, bodhran), Roberto
Viesi (bass, bouzouki, percussion, mandoloncello), Sergio Minelli
(guitar, vocals), Gianfranco Serra (flute, sax), Giovanna Baroni
(flute), Gianni Binetti (vocals, bandoneon, piano), Lorenzo Palmoso
(guitar, bouzouki, mandoloncello) and Andrea Abeni (guitar). The
album in some way summarizes their career and I’m sure that fans of
bands such as Malicorne will appreciate it... |

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
