SEAHORSE STUDIO AND RECORDINGS COMPANY


 

Sono Paolo Messere chitarra acustica e voce dei Blessed Child Opera.Il nostro progetto nasce nell'ottobre 1999.
Si tratta di musica non facilmente etichettabile che sembra avere radici nella canzone d'autore filo-americana.
I testi sono in lingua Inglese.
Non e' la mia prima esperienza musicale bensì è il frutto di un percorso maturato dopo una decina di anni d' esperienze in alcune band napoletane in cui ho militato.
Gia' chitarrista cantante dei Silken Barb, con all'attivo un'esordio discografico targato freeland 1999 che segnava il gruppo tra le migliori promesse del post-rock italiano ha suonato come chitarrista anche nella seminale band francese Ulan Bator, al quarto disco uscito in Italia per la Sonica-Virgin e in America per la Young God.
É uscito nel Gennaio 2002 il primo disco dei Blessed Child Opera a cura della LOUD DUST RECORDINGS/BMI. L'album è prodotto artisticamente da Amaury Cambusat degli Ulan Bator.
Il cd in questione propone 8 brani registrati a Napoli e si avvale della collaborazione di 5 persone fondamentali:
Paolo Coraggio fisarmonica, Alfredo Spinelli violino, Dario Torre basso, Valeria Bifulco alla voce.
L'intenzione dei Blessed Child Opera e' di mirare dritto al cuore degli ascoltatori, di proporre brani con dei live acts semplici ma diretti e di ricordare che esistono persone che sanno scrivere buone canzoni seppure cantate non nella propria lingua, in posti come Napoli.
Contatti: Paolo Messere, Via Sementini 13 80141 Napoli.

This is an introduction to the Blessed Child Opera a neapolitan indie folk band. -About the idea- The project sees the lights when in a sunny day of october '99, Paolo Messere wakes up picking up the phone and calling every single crazy head he has choosen to follow him in a hard-dreamlike new experience. He knows where to seek and find those people, deaf to everything but music. The first chords will come along. -About people and music- Paolo Messere, the EUREKA' one, acoustic guitar, vocals and whatever you may make music with, is not at is first musical step, indeed. He comes from a well loved and liked musical polly,moving throughout ten years of notes expression. His last ten years have given birth to a cd labelled Freeland 1999 with one of the most acclaimed Neapolitan Bands , the Silken Barb, among others of post rock Italian scene. He was played the guitar in the singular French band Ulan Bator, at its forth album, released in march 2000 under Sonica-Virgin. Paolo Coraggio (accordion,acoustic guitar) Alfredo Spinelli ( violin), are both members of the R.U.A., an amazing and interesting new band with fabulous sound and an impressive style, something in between dEUS, Tindersticks and the best italian song of author. Valeria Bifulco has finally fought and won her personal battle against her shyness and she has sung in the demo-tracks,streachimg harmouny and joy during the record session and has given her suggestion for the cover realization. Amaury Cambuzat has been the precious supervisor for this production. With him the right gear has been given to a unique atmosphere of good feeling and good fun. To listen and listen carefully his voice on" So blind" .Raffaele Di Somma ex bass player of Silken Barb plays all the same the bass in B.C.O. -About music- Not easy to label ,( italian newspapers has talked about B.C.Opera as the italian representatives of the new acoustic scene), intimate and relaxing at a first listening, but much more intimate at a second one,nervertheless intense and direct lightly on the way of America song of author -About the tracks- All recorded in Naples, all written in English, no need to explain why. -About listeners- The best wish is to go straight to the listeners' heart and not only, and to purpose music and words mixed up with audience feelings, hopefully through '' lives to state once more and to remember there are people writing songs and making instrumental expression to keep music alive all around the world just like in Naples.
