“There’s jazz, there’s rock, there’s wine. There is the virtuosity, there is a lack of memory such as the Meshuggah, there is some vintage (…) And despite being recorded in direct hold that is not lazy improvisation but a precise care.” – www.MusicClub.it

NEO

the trio is harmonically and rhythmically close to Northern Europe’s contemporary music, except for the overseas influences of Frank Zappa, Fred Frith, John Zorn or Minuteman.” They have also received high praise from Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Mike Watt (on The Pedro Show).
Neo are: Manlio Maresca (Guitar), Carlo Conti (Tenor sax), Antonio Zitarelli (Drums).
