Marchio Bossa are a jazz bossa band from Italy created by Pippo and Piero Lombardo in 2001.

All works by both authors are arranged by Pippo (composer of Balanco) with Piero as lyricist (primarily in Italian), and are concretized in hundreds of unpublished pieces and various covers. A selection of these pieces has been recorded and sent to many record labels. With strong backing from producer Marco Rossi of Azzurra Music in Verona, Marchio Bossa have realized four albums that boast success both critically and in sales (both online and in every corner of the globe).

For years, the backbone of the group has been the following: Francesca Leone - vocals Pippo Lombardo - piano and keyboards Guido di Leone - guitar Pierluigi Balducci - bass Mimmo Scialpi - drums They have also collaborated over time with: Fabrizio Bosso (trumpet); Daniel Scannapieco (tenor sax); Gilson Silveira (percussions); Gaetano Partipilo (alto sax); Rocco Zifarelli (guitar); Marco Tamburini (trumpet); Leo Gadaleta (string
