Amaraterra
Crazy Coqs Cabaret, W1F 7ED , [Venue Details]Pizzica is the folk dance of the Salento region, in the deep end of the South-East of Italy.
A crossroad of civilisations, Salento has preserved its ancient Greek-Roman folk roots: the Dionysian festivals and the mythological poisonous bite of the tarantula induce an irresistible urge to dance oneself into a trance-like state at the relentless pace of the traditional Tamburello frame drum.
Formed in London in 2011 by a small group of passionate Salentini, Amaraterra has evolved into a multinational ensemble influenced by the multicultural London scene without losing its
traditional southern Italian roots. There’s first studio record, the EP “Tradizioni” in 2016, has been featured in fRoots with an enthusiastic review, a great reception at WOMAD UK 2016 and numerous passes on relevant radio stations and podcasts.
In 2021, the band released its first fully-fledged studio album, “Malvasia.” In this work, the band has developed its own original style by enriching the traditional sound with the possibilities of studio recording. The 12-track album presents a comprehensive anthology of traditional ballads and tradition-inspired original works.
