about
The "Mercanti di Liquore" born in Monza, Italy, around 1995, when three musicians, who already were playing together in a band called Zoo, decided to create a group oriented towards acustic music. Their repertoire is made of original compositions and of rivisited songs by Fabrizio De André and other significative italian authors. The "Mercanti di Liquore" are marked out by creativity and originality in their arrangements, personalizing so much the interpretation of thei song that they've been defined as a real "power-folk trio", because of their personal approach to auteur music. Biography In recent years "Mercanti di Liquore" performed a lot of live concerts reaching gradually and consolidating an original stylistic consistence that brought them to walk through regional limits and to submit their music to the biggest musical happening around Italy and to many radio programmes. A professional development that took them to take part in the big musical celebration "Faber, amico fragile", on the 12 march 2000 in the "Carlo Felice" theatre in Genoa, Italy, promoted by the cultural association "Fabrizio De André" in which took part the most important italian artists (Vasco Rossi, Luciano Ligabue...). A double album has been recorded during that show: Faber amico fragile (disc 1: Cd Bianco) and Faber amico fragile (disc 2: Cd Nero). Their first album was "Mai Paura" (Musica Mezzanima-Samsara): besides original compositions, it contains some of the unforgettable ballads by Fabrizi
