7 Ottobre / Cody ChesnuTT / Showcase

Una magnifica sorpresa


Lo showcase inizierà alle 18.30. Dato che Cody attirerà molta più gente di quanta la nostra sala eventi possa accogliere, vi consigliamo di venire per tempo.


Siamo convinti che l'inglese non rappresenterà un ostacolo.

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Cody ChesnuTT was previously in the band The Crosswalk before going solo. He released his first LP – a double album called The Headphone Masterpiece – under his own name in 2002, having recorded it on a 4-track recorder in his bedroom studio, which he calls The Sonic Promiseland. In 2002, hip hop group The Roots had huge success with their version of The Seed and invited him to play guitar and sing on the new version. In 2010 the EP Black Skin No Value was released and a new LP Landing On A Hundred is due in October 2012.

Following a period of family-man retreat and reflection Cody marks his return on with a brand new album, Landing On A Hundred.
A full-blown tower of soul and driving brass stabs in the Mayfield / Gaye tradition, That’s Still Mama reflects on a misspent youth - one of several poignant narratives that feature on Landing On A Hundred as it sketches out a man’s road to redemption after years of womanizing and crack addiction, and the power and labour of slow-burning marital love that eclipses mere material expressions of affection.
