Al Doum & The Faryds

AL DOUM & THE FARYDS is a musical ensemble born in Milan in 2010, joining musicians coming from different experiences, from punk to jazz, from improvisation to rock. It combines mainly afro and modal jazz with rock and psychedelia using ethnic instruments for the realization of original and unexpected sound timbres. The result is a sound where musical energies transport the mind to a deeper and expanded state of consciousness. The formation varies from 7 to 11 elements becoming almost an orchestra between drums, percussion, wind section, electric keyboards, flutes and voices. A peculiar characteristic is that the group has always sought ways of self-organization for the realization of their projects. For this reason, it has recorded its 5 latest albums at the Guscio Studio - Milan owned by Lorenzo Farolfi (guitarist) experimenting with recording techniques and music production. The records are then printed and distributed by the independent label Black Sweat Records owned by Davide Domenichini (bassist/sin-ger), while the videos are made by Ivan Guillaume Cosenza (keyboardist/flautist/singer). Moreover, our live shows are not only a sound experience but also a visual one: we accompain our music with a light-show.
