I- talia, it was really one of the best hangs of my life, 3 days in Verona rehearsing with Danilo Gallo and his Roosters, cocks of the walk all of 'em, unseasonably warm weather providing a corona of light surrounding some of the finest musicians it's been my pleasure to play with in many a year, some of the most accomplished players on the free musica szene internationale, including the estimable Zeno Di Rossi on drums, who moved from subtlest gradations of pulsation to kickass powerhouse tub-thumper in the blink of a millisecond (the snail crawls across the edge of the razor blade); the sanguine 6 footer sardonico Achille Succi--a Borat ringer!-- on fruity/woody bass clarinet, ich bin ein Berliner Gerhard Gschloessl on finely articulated trombipulation, and the bearded composer himself, Danilo Gallo, purveyor of Italian moods, spaghetti western interludes, manic compositional mood-swings and then some who also happens to be one of the finest most fluid upright acoustic bass players I've ever heard (guy also plays a mean guitar...)...
I guess you might describe his music as very mysterious, full of surprises, kind of chamber music that partakes equally of jazz, rock, folk, and world influences to arrive at a very distinctive sound of its own... Gary Lucas _NYC
danilo is a supreme producer of rythmical lows and noises.
to do that, he uses doublebass, , acoustic bass guitar, bass balalaikas, 12strings bass.
born in foggia _deep south italy_ in the near 1972.
living. somewhere. beetween berlin and foggia: actually, padova.
he plays in many bands, among them GALLO & THE ROOSTERS (leader), MICKEY FINN + CUONG VU, ROLLERBALL, FRANCESCO BEARZATTI TINISSIMA, DOLPHIANA, THE CRYPT, UNSCIENTIFIC ITALIANS, EL GALLO ROJO DOUBLE QUARTET, BLONDE ZEROS, THRILL, NESSO G, ZENO DE ROSSI SHTIK, GEEGALLOMINETTO, JUMP THE SHARK, JESSICA LURIE ENSEMBLES, MAURO OTTOLINI SOUSAPHONIX, LASER PIGS, OSMIZA, ORCHESTRA VERTICAL, GUANO PADANO, ENZO FAVATA "THE NEW VILLAGE" feat. TENORES DI BITTI, SPARKLE, PIETRO VALENTE "Storie dal lontano Oriente", FAZZINI_GALLO_U.T.GANDHI...and many, many others.
