The rock-blues author project Granny Says, began in Brescia, Italy, in the summer of 2005 with the collaboration of Henry Sauda (guitar, vocal and composer), Arki Buelli (drums, producer and arranger), Simone Boffa (guitar and composer).
The contemporary-blues quartet of classic formation presents a fully original repertoire of its own, with sounds influenced by the blues but in constant search of new colours rock, pop, reggae, and contaminations set free from classic idioms.
Henry’s scratchy voice, with its personal timbre, tells in english, stories of life with its everyday, joys and sorrows... blues stories. The two guitarists alternating in the rythmic and in solos different and well-distinguished with styles and sounds, are always pleasant and well-amalgamated with each other.
The Granny Says band offers a show that strikes you for the personal and decisive sound, for the excellent arrangements, for the impeccable rythmic section, and for the sonorities, which are of the kind one doesn’t easily forget.
Began by the union of musicians with several years of professional experience, the Granny Says band made itself known during the very same year of its foundation, partecipating in festivals all over: Nave Blues Festival, Montiblues Festival, A.D.M.R. festival, Nistoc Rock Festival, Vallemaggia Magic Blues Festival, Idroscalo Festival, Treviglio Blues Festival.
