The story of The Cinelli Brothers begins in the childhood of Marco and Alessandro Cinelli, growing up together in Italy. The two brothers developed a deep love for blues: Marco’s six-string harmonies, paired with Alessandro’s solid rhythms, laid the foundation for what would become The Cinelli Brothers.
Their music is a heartfelt tribute to legends like Muddy Waters, Freddie King, and Otis Redding, aiming to capture the soul of that golden era while infusing it with their own energy and modern edge. Their sound is a rich blend of Chicago blues, marked by innovative use of electric guitar, bass, drums, and piano, fused with the untamed energy of Texas blues, incorporating elements of rock’n’roll and soul.
