Ou: Lively sardinian/italian world music sextet from rome.


Recently inducted into the Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame, internationally recognized producer and multi-instrumentalist Amy Denio has laid a new egg in the next of her label Spoot Music!

'SCRAMBLED!' is the second recording by OU ('egg' in Sardinian dialect), a lively Sardinian/Italian world music sextet based in Rome. This is an absolutely beautiful collection of new compositions by trumpetist/ukeleleist Ersilia Prosperi.

Sung in Italian, Sardinian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, English and Pygmy, with a guest brass band and guest chorus, 'SCRAMBLED' blurs the boundaries between jazz, world music, irony, ferocity and tenderness.

Personnel:
Ersilia Prosperi: Trumpet, Flugelhorn, Ukulele, Background Vocals
Martina Fadda: Lead Vocal, Whistle, Shaker
Claudio Mosconi: Bass, Background Vocals
Cristiano De Fabritiis: Drums, Shaker, Background Vocals
Cristina Pecorario: Alto Sax, Background Vocals
Andrea Pesce: Piano, Wurlitzer, Hammond B-3 organ, Drum Programming, Glockenspiel, Toy Rat, Vocals
Amy Denio: Alto Sax, Clarinet, Bombo Leguero, Jew's Harp, Background Vocals
