Glincolti

Biography

GLINCOLTI is an instrumental ensemble founded in 2007 that combines Progressive, Psychedelia, Funk, and more. The founders are drummer Roberts Colbertaldo, guitarist Alessandro Tedesco, and bassist Andrea Zardo. Later, guitarist Federico 'Jek' Jacono joined the band, adding a more sophisticated sound.​ Their early tracks are melodic instrumental pieces, full of expressiveness and capable of brilliantly replacing vocals. Between the spring and summer of 2009, Glincolti recorded their debut album Visti & Imprevisti, released by Go Down Records.

​

At the end of 2010, a fifth member, Alessandro Brunetta, joined the group. He is a versatile musician skilled in several instruments, including saxophone, clarinet, harmonica, and keyboards. As a lover of Rhythm Blues and Funk Rock, Brunetta infuses the sound with a warmer and more harmonious touch. In 2011, Federico 'Jek' Jacono quit the band and was replaced by guitarist Alberto Piccolo, a talented blues musician who knows how to give the sound an even more melodic and authentic feel.

​​

At the beginning of 2012, Glincolti recorded their sophomore self-titled album at Go Down Studio in Savignano sul Rubicone, with Enrico Gabrielli (Calibro 35, Mariposa, Afterhours) as a special guest.

​

Between 2013 and 2014, Alessandro Tedesco and Alessandro Brunetta left the band to follow new paths. However, the project is still active and a new guitarist, Alex 'Fernet' Donanzan, has joined the group. In 2016, Roberts' catchy rhythm, Andrea's incisive riffing, and Alberto's furious and hypnotic guitar contributed to the creation of Ad Occhi Aperti. In March 2019, Go Down Records released a deluxe vinyl edition of the album.
