Nandha Blues Band

Max Arrigo is the founder of the Nandha Blues a classic rock band with a southern flavour, well known for his fine slide guitar work played mostly in standard and open tune. He has been the leader of well known southern rock bands as Voodoo Lake (1999/2006) and Shanghai Noodle Factory(2006/2010) He’s also appreciated for his soulful voice, which has been compared to the singers who pioneered this kind of music. Over the years, he has shared European stages with several artists and bands from all over the world: Marc Ford (Black Crowes & Ben Harper),Hook Herrera ( Gov’t Mule and Willy DeVille), Jono Manson, Johnny Neel & W.I.N.D.,Steepwater band, Mauro Pagani (P.F.M.), Savoy Truffle, Joe Pitts and the Liquid Groove Mojo, Andy Penington, Pat Savage, Rebel Storm, Flatman, The Cell, Ulysses (UK) and many more. Nandha is an international musical project, since 2010, including the talented Italian musicians Christian Curcio on Bass, Roberto Tassone on drums. That which brings the band members together is a taste for improvisation based on blues, rock and a little jazz. A formula of age-old traditions but one which has remained relevant and which goes straight to the heart, used as a means of entering into harmony with the cosmos…..
