ALL ABOUT US:
A real family band coming from a small town near Milano (Italy) called Arluno, Family Style were formed in 1994 by guitarist MARCO LIMIDO, to play the best Chicago Blues, steamy shuffles, topped by awesome harp and dynamic licks, & lots of swing (Blues Review)!
Together with younger brother FRANCO LIMIDO (Recorded with Robert Palmer) on vocals and harmonica, cousin DAVIDE BIANCHI on bass and the support of some of the best Italian session men on drums, Family Style launched themselves to the world's blues circuit, and have never looked back, they are simply the best!
Family Style have made many friends during their European tours in recent years. They are great guys, of course, but the secret of their success is phenomenal live playing.
Their gigs are technical master classes and, just as importantly, joyous celebrations of a music they so clearly love the natural blues.
Whether performing distinctive and thoughtfully original material or sensitively interpreting the work of others, they reach out to their audiences who never fail to return the embrace by the end of the evening.
Italian Blues deluxe!!The brand new album WALK came out on May 2nd 2003
The band is currently on the road celebrating their 10th anniversary around Europe with successful concerts in Belgium, Holland, Poland, Great Britain, Ireland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Switzerland and others....
The new CD Live in Nottingham is out now!!!
