Blues in Italy, a Mediterranean country with a vibrant blues scene. The imaginative guitarist, singer, and songwriter Max De Bernardi and the talented pianist, guitarist, drummer, and songwriter Simone Scifoni are two blues artists who bring freshness and commitment to American roots music in the country. They lead various interesting projects: De Bernardi solo, with his band, or with singer Veronica Sbergia; Scifoni, aka Slim, as a one-man band, alongside guitarist Paul Venturi or Sbergia herself. All of these initiatives turn into sincere musical sessions that emphasize classic blues, ragtime, boogie, swing, and barrelhouse piano, with infectious performances that showcase the great rapport between these musicians. "When The Sun Goes Down" is the first joint album by both musicians, where guitar and piano evoke the echoes of Jimmy Yancey, Cow Cow Davenport, or Pinetop Smith. The album consists of eleven exciting tracks faithful to their influences, showing the complicity between the two musicians and conveying to the listener the true originality of this musical genre. This album stands as a testament to the artists' commitment to solidly preserving an essential legacy of early 20th-century African American roots music.
