UK Blues Awards band of the year nominee The Cinelli Brothers come to Newbury

The Cinelli Brothers play Arlington Arts next Saturday, August 20 (8pm).

The Cinelli Brothers is a project born out of a common passion for the electric Chicago and Texas blues from the 60s and 70s, when brothers Marco (guitarist and lead singer) and Alessandro (drummer) decided to form an explosive team showcasing original repertoire in the style of Chess, Stax and Motown.

Joining the two brothers on stage are Tom Julian-Jones on harmonica, guitar and vocals and Stephen Giry on bass, guitar and vocals.

At the end of last year, the band released their second album Villa Jukejoint in conjuction with a sold-out show at the legendary 100 Club in London. Recorded at home with only one microphone, the record has a unique vintage and retro feel typical of the 50s and earlier 60s.

February album of the month for the IBBA, which broadcast a different song each week, the record has been featured in magazines in the UK, Spain, and in the Netherlands, with fantastic reviews.

In 2020, 2021 and 2022 the band has been nominated for the UK Blues Awards as ‘Blues Band of the Year’.

In January, Villa Jukejoint was nominated for the UK Blues Awards as Blues Album of the Year.

The Cinelli Brothers champion a new generation of passionate musicians sharing in the love of blues, soul, R&B and the true authentic sounds that have made the blues a cornerstone of music history.
