2012 release ** "L'Ultimo Ricatto (title in Italian, songs in English) is the work of a singer-songwriter devoted to the sacred word of folk in all its noblest forms, from English to American, from the 1970s to today. This began with the choice to achieve that warm, personal sound from the recordings, entrusted to the expert hands of the album's co-producer and recording engineer Raffaele Abbate, in his studio in the hills of Genoa, far from the city and its noise. He then decided to test his songs and, in doing so, subjected them to the influence of a great musical dissident like Xabier Iriondo (Uncode Duello, Afterhours), who arranged the album, injecting the meditative and highly emotional songwriting with avant-garde stimuli. "L'ultimo Ricatto" is indeed a folk album, but it could almost be mistaken for an album of urban experimentation."
