Roberto Cassani sings contemporary, relevant, funny stories in a bizarre Scottish Italian accent. His infectious humour, bold originality and exciting live performances have quickly allowed him to get noticed and going from playing sessions in pubs, to selling out music venues up and down the country, as well getting radio play and featuring in some of the UK's most prestigious music festivals. Cassani is the people's minstrel for the 21st century.
"If he wasn't amongst us already, somebody would have to invent Roberto Cassani, he's such a blast of fresh air in a tired, self-regarding world." (Whispering and Hollering);
"A refreshing new talent" (The Edinburgh Fringe Festival);
"True to life, funny and says something different about Britain today." (Woven Wheat Whispers);
"A true original and an unbelievable performer" (Orkney Today);
"Made me wet ma pants!" (M.A.M.A.S.);
"Chorus-driven, clap-along fun with personality" (The Herald)
"Absolutely fantastic" (Nessmp3.com);
"Cassani Rocks!" (Medicine Music);
"Irresistible!...A real one-off!...Hoorah for Roberto Cassani!" (John Davy - Music News).
