Bio
Angus Mc Og is Antonio Tavoni. He lives in Vignola, a small town on a small river between the hills and the plain of Emilia Romagna, in northern Italy. For a long time he plays as guitarist in several local bands, till he puts down his electric guitar to grab an acoustic one and starts writing. His musical influences come from the songwriters he loves the most, like the old favourites Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Tim Buckley and Nick Drake, plus Iron and Wine, Bon Iver, Elvis Perkins, Bonnie Prince Billy, Will Sheff. Between 2009 and 2010 Angus Mc Og works hard on the new material and plays gigs up and down the Italian peninsula. On the summer of 2009 he flies to Sydney to meet his friend and former band member Lucio Pedrazzi, which lives there and have been playing drums for the Australian band Faker. The chance is good to play together, improve the songs and keep on writing new ones. Between Summer and Autumn 2010 twelve songs are recorded at the new Bombanella Studio in Maranello, engineered by Davide Cristiani. On December 2010 Angus Mc Og signs a promotional deal with the Italian Label Picicca/Pippola Music. Angus Mc Og è Antonio Tavoni. Il progetto acustico e solitario prende forma circa due anni fa quando Antonio appoggia la chitarra elettrica e inizia a scrivere brani tra il Folk e il Songwriting d'oltre oceano. I riferimenti vanno da Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Tim Buckley e Nick Drake ad Iron and Wine, Bon Iver, Elvis Perkins, Bonnie Prince Billy e Will Sheff. Tra il 2009 e il 2010 Angus Mc Og mette a punto il nuovo materiale e suona su e gi・per il centro nord Italia. Nell'estate del 2009 vola in Australia per rincontrarsi con il batterista modenese Lucio Pedrazzi, trasferitosi a Sydney, dove suona con l'indie rock band Faker. L'occasione è buona per suonare insieme, testare i pezzi e continuare a scrivere brani. Tra l'estate e l'autunno del 2010 dodici tracce vengono registrate al nuovo Bombanella Studio insieme a Davide Cristiani. Ad aprile esce così Anorak.
