Starting October 16 I will be touring with my solo act and with some musical heavy weights in several cities across the US. The tour is supported by Italia Music Export, powered by SIAE. Facebook events and ticket links below.

Piero Bittolo Bon) contained in the original “Butterflying LP” out on Mother Tongue Records. Copies of the vinyl will be available at each show. Cover Designs by Raimund Wong.

The Upperground Orchestra LP, titled Euganea, was recorded at the Renaissance-era Villa dei Vescovi outside Padua in 2016 during the Musica Veneta residency supported by Fondo Ambiente Italiano. It’s the four-piece electronic jazz group’s first release since 2012’s The Eupen Takes. The lineup for Euganea features Beaini on electronics and spatula, Tommaso Cappellato on drums and percussion, Alvise Seggi on bass and oud plus Piero Bittolo Bon on woodwinds and electronics. The five-track LP is out October 7th.
