Hailing from Cesena (Italy), After Fedro are the trio of guitarist Mark Jelli, bassist Mauro Mussoni, and drummer Manuel Giovannetti. Standing firm between acoustic tradition and club-oriented beats, After Fedro is founded on a unique blend of ethereal guitar lines and unwavering drums. Drawing on their array of musical interests, After Fedro take influences from shoegaze, electronica, ambient, afrobeat, and artists such as Aphex Twin, Bill Frisell and Radiohead. They are defining an authentic and captivating way of conceiving a guitar trio. Their first album is now out on Glitchy Pleasure.

“(..) I think of jazz as a living organism that is constantly evolving and which finds its identity through the contrasts that shape it. I think jazz as a continuous interweaving of sound elements that cannot be confined in one definition. From my earliest studies of gipsy and Django Reinhardt’s jazz I learned how borders are not only a system of division and divergence, but points of transit and exchange.“
