...SIŁA I PIĘKNO MUZYKI TKWIĄ W JEJ RÓŻNORODNOŚCI


..::OPIS::..

Multi-instrumentalist Franck Carducci (bass, keyboards, guitar, drums, etc.) grew up in a family where music is a way of life. At the age of 5 he made his first experiences with a Hammond organ, proceeded to learn the guitar later on and joined the first rock band when he was 14 years old. Little by little, he strived towards music that, while still being accessible, is also structurally more complex with different atmospheres. After becoming infatuated with bands like Pink Floyd and Genesis he embedded progressive rock into his heart and his soul.

As Franck's musical life progressed, he took the opportunity to learn both the bass and drums providing an in depth understanding of the various instruments involved in a classic rock band. The culmination of those experiences gave him the ability to create the various arrangements to the songs he's compling today. Between the ages of 20 and 30, he played with about 20 different bands and was involved in the recording of 15 different albums. Two of these found him paired with French female folk singer Yanne Matis with whom he toured throughout Europe.

In 2008, Franck moved to Amsterdam where he got into the local scene and performed regularly in the famous clubs of the city. It was 2010 when Franck opened a gig for one of his heroes, Steve Hackett, who encouraged him to focus on producing his own solo album. This was the starting shot for 'Oddity', which was recorded featuring several guest musicians and takes you through imaginary tales of unlikely characters inspired by English literature and Greek mythology. His melodic songs are reflecting inspirations coming from diverse bands, where a symphonic touch is in place quite often.



'It’s an absolute delight to be able to release a DVD/Blu-Ray of our live shows. For me, the visual aspects have always been a full part of live music. That’s why acts like Genesis & Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Alice Cooper and of course Pink Floyd have always been huge influences of mine, so a DVD/Blu-Ray was completely necessary to be able to share the full experience of our shows and I do hope people will enjoy it.' - Franck Carducci.



A live supercharged just after two albums, long tracks, which go directly to the world of Lewis Carroll, a very "englander" sound eyeing the side of GENESIS and a little SUPERTRAMP for the melodies, musicians already familiar with their art with high quality guests, Mathieu Spaeter, Olivier Castan and Jimmy Pallagrosi for a high quality set! A live that has nothing to envy to the major prog groups, it is during the presentation of the titles that one realizes that Franck is indeed French. The titles mainly take again those 'of torn apart' plus the two great ones of their first; So few new things but frenzied titles that give plenty of energy; a small note to say that it is almost essential to acquire, especially in these periods of scarcity of concerts.
