  Neo-soul harmonies blend with sophisticated rhythms drawing on funk, Latin music, hip-hop and Afrobeat. Songwriting-inspired lyrics and melodies evoke fleeting images from a dreamlike world.

In 2025 the band released the singles Galassia di Andromeda and Mentre si scongela la cena, while continuing an active live schedule at venues and festivals across the region. At the end of 2025 Alessandro Della Lunga joined on drums and Miriam Koleilat on keyboards. Their self-produced debut EP, Bassa Nuova, was released in February 2026.

  Plumbus
  Plumbus is the solo project of Fabio Mastrantuono, a musician from Latina now based in Bologna. Built around guitar, loop station, vocals and electronic elements, the project combines ambient influences with indie-folk songwriting. Over the years, Plumbus has performed in numerous underground venues and festivals and has also provided live music for the theatre production The Fall of the House of Usher, inspired by Edgar Allan Poe. His performances blend layered guitar arpeggios, ethereal vocals and electronic textures, creating cinematic soundscapes that alternate intimate folk moments with synth and drum-machine-driven passages.
