Get ready for a wild ride with Articolo Trentino! This isn't just a band; it's a collection of characters straight out of a movie. Pietro “la roccia” Cappelletti, the bassist, is considered one of the top 100 bassists in Mattarello, a former drag queen who returned to music to avoid a life-altering surgery. He lives on malt and hops, yet somehow seems the most normal. Sergio “nonno” Tessadri, on keyboards, is the group's 'elder statesman,' who once played for Chopin before his ragtime phase. He lives in a retirement home, trading porn magazines for unfiltered cigarettes, and often ends up hundreds of miles from the gig, sleeping under bridges and hitchhiking home. Renato “Ghedda” Labalestra, the guitarist, is the group's alternative spirit, found through a truck stop ad. He dresses in recycled clothes, pretending to be an Iraqi refugee, but is actually a former tomato picker from Tavoliere delle Puglie. Max “salamandra” Vit, the new drummer, honed his rhythm by years of gardening and metalworking. He's an interregional indoor twerking champion and enjoys the company of older men for a Peroni. Paolo “manolesta” Mairer, another guitarist, is the virtuoso who even sleeps with his guitar, fathering two 'children': Paul and Les. A veteran of TheRoldeg Stones, he's been stuck with this 'anomalous family' for twenty years and can't escape. Finally, Roberto “brodegon” Laino, the singer, is to blame for starting it all but refuses responsibility – and can't even sing! He often wakes up in strangers' homes, empties their fridge, uses the bathroom without flushing, and flees. He frequently pleads semi-insanity, and his children have even considered changing their last name. This promises to be an unforgettable, chaotic, and hilarious musical experience!
