about
Fratelli Sberlicchio were born in Turin in 1998. From the very beginning the band has a clear idea of what its leading thread will be: irony. In the band’s first songs irony is used in order to exorcize the banality of the hits of the ‘80s which, through contaminations and reinterpretations, are soiled and shaped until they acquire a new identity. This happens also thanks to the influence of the many different musical scenarios from which the members of the band come. From the beginning, the live performances are the peculiar feature of Fratelli Sberlicchio. Through different and colourful disguises the concert turn into a proper show in which the singers give shape to the characters of their songs. In 2001 their debut album “Mucche Pazze” comes out. Thanks to it and to the visual impact of its concerts, the live performing of the band increases and spreads across all Italy. In the meantime the band grows on until the achievement of a clearer and more defined identity. The original irony and contaminations lead to a precise genre: the bastard pop. Arisen in the latest years from the English music scene and always prerogative of djs, the bastard pop, in its purest form, consist in mixing more or less famous songs in order to create something new and shocking. Fratelli Sberlicchio manage to move bastard pop from the console to the stage, becoming the pioneers of this experimentation in Italy. That’s how the band succeeds in mixing such songs as “Tanta voglia di lei” by Pooh wit
