Carpe Afternoon
May 2015: 11 songs, 4 days, a disparate bunch of legendary musicians and artists come together in a tiny Neapolitan village. Nourished by the warmth, peace and pace of village life and soaked in the Southern Italian sunshine, Loco Ironico was born. The brainchild of British singer-songwriter Joe Cang and Italian musician and composer Matteo Saggesse, the album ?Carpe Afternoon' engineered by Jerry Boys (Buena Vista Social Club, Ali Farka Toure, Baaba Maal) and features, amongst others, Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera, Sarah Jane Morris (The Communards, Pere Ubu), Danny Cummings (Elton John, Mark Knopfler) and Steve Sidwell (Stevie Wonder, Todd Rundgren). Songs of heartache, shipwrech and weight loss that draw on New Orleans jazz, Cuban tango and calypso. Think Dr John, Tom Waits, Randy Newman and Buena Vista. Studio
