Its fragility and tenderness bring comfort and understanding. It reflects the unique sensitivity of its creator, who has drawn on his experience to bring this profoundly moving, and life affirming record to the world.” – Polly Jean Harvey (Executive Producer) Ipecac Recordings proudly present the eponymous solo album by guitarist, producer and composer Alessandro “Asso” Stefana, with PJ Harvey as Executive Producer. Now available on vinyl. The musical journey of Alessandro “Asso” Stefana, hailing from Brescia, Italy, is a compelling one, and if you’ve heard PJ Harvey’s ‘The Hope Six Demolition Project’, Mike Patton’s ‘Mondo Cane’, Calexico’s ‘El Mirador’, Micah P. Hinson’s ‘I Lie to You’ or Penguin Café Orchestra’s ‘Rain Before Seven’, or listened to Guano Padano’s output on Ipecac, you’ll have encountered him. A mostly instrumental folk album that also features three songs with Roscoe Holcomb sampled on vocals, licensed from Smithsonian Folkways. Roscoe is most known for ‘I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow’ that was used in ‘O’ Brother Where Art Thou’. Influences from an eclectic array of genres, spanning rootsy folk and primitive blues to soundtracks, psychedelia, desert ballads and ambient explorations. Instruments used include relatively obscure or nearly forgotten instruments of the early 1900s, such as the Marxophone, pedal steel and lap steel guitars, tape echoes, psychedelic organs and folk fingerpicking. On tour in Europe, with dates starting in Italy in May alongside Vinicio Capossela and Micah P Hinson.
