Dago Red is a unique album from guitarist Fausto Mesolella and Italian singer Raiz. They are joined on the album by Rita Marcotulli (piano), Ferdinando Ghidelli (pedal steel guitar), Mimi Ciaramella (drums), Adolfo La Volpe (harmonium) and Wena (choirs).
Mesolella and Raiz describe Dago Red as a mix of traditional Neapolitan music from Italy with rock and reggae music classics. Resulting in a fascinating album that includes performances of “I’m Your Man” by Leonard Cohen, “See Me Feel Me” by Pete Townshend of The Who, “Give Me Love” by George Harrison of the Beatles, “Rastaman Chant” by Bob Marley and “Arrivederci Rome” made famous by Dean Martin. Each of these classics is paired with the music of Italy. Resulting in a unique musical experience.
