  • Bio

    I am The Child of A Creek. I was born in a too small noizy town in september 1978. "Once Upon a Time the Light through the Trees" is my first 6songs completely self produced album I sung, wrote, composed, perfomed, recorded, produced and mixed together in my small home recording studio and a little mic between September 2004 and July 2005 using acoustic classic electric and slide guitars, my harmonica honer, my wooden flute, organ, electric piano, timpanoes, snares, cymbals and various other percussions like wooden boxes and metal bottles. "Once upon a time the Light through the Trees" obtained good reviews and support from italian and european magazines and webmagazines. Between September 2005 and January 2006 I wrote songs, painted landscapes and created characters, drank long coffees 'till come observing and shaping fresh tastes and new moods for the new stuff. The small room where "Once Upon a Time the Light through the Trees" was composed and recorded, have been dismantled and I have prefearred go sleeping and dreaming together with mics, guitars and my home recording studio through various friends bedrooms and gardens neighbour. New instruments joined the recording sessions like a little russian balalaika played as a percussion, a wall steiner piano, an old folk guitar and an irish bohdran. "Unicorns still make me feel fine" was sung, written, composed, arranged, performed, recorded, produced and mixed between February and May 2006. "Songs for Domestics" taken from "Once Upon a Time the Light through the Trees" [2005] has been included in a digital compilation cd released by the italian label 42 Records (IT) in November 2007. I shared the stage with Nedelle Torrisi, Mi and L'au, Cesare Basile, Milenasong & Mark Axiak, Xabier Iriondo & Wu Fei,Laura Gibson, José Gonzalez(for the only Italian tour date in 2007), Carla Bozulich, Larkin Grimm, Moltheni, Ralfe Band and for Marissa Nadler between June 2006 and April 2008. "Unicorns still make me Fine" (2006/2008) has been released on September 2008 by the english label Dust Wind Tales run by Stephen Kent (also known as The End Springs) and obtained support from italian and european magazines and webmagazines. A new song of mine entitled "Loneliness" has been included in the digital compilation cd by Silber Media (US). From December 2008 to May 2009 I shared the stage with some italian acts like Bachi da Pietra, Marco Parente, The Niro. I played some solo shows, I've toured Italy with Sharron Kraus and have shared the stage with Midori Hirano. ***DISCOGRAPHY*** NEW RECORD OUT !!!

Notes: "Find A Shelter Along the Path" is a diary that comes out from that wonderful day I spent across the mountains on January last year. Once back home, I„ve tried to remember the noises, the silence, the cold wind who blews on my skin while walking slowly in the snow valley, the white trees and the high winter peaks and I decided to wait for a while before start recording to let these things and the emotions to wake up at the appropriate time together with me. Once ready to do that, I've opened the mics". ... www.myspace.com/littleredbirdsrecords, www.audioglobe.it, www.eclipse-records.com, www.autumnwp.com, throughthetress@thechildofacreek.it ...

    *** NEW UPCOMING RECORD "THE EARTH CRIES BLOOD": 1st REVIEW

    ​My new upcoming record entitled "​The Earth Cries Blood​" (2010/2012, ​Pantaleimon/Current 93​ sings in one song of the record) OUT SOON on Three Legged Cat Records (ITA)/Eclipse Records (USA)/Norman Records (UK), has been reviewed by the italian magazine Ritual this month. ​​Check the review out:​ ​ Il mio nuovo disco intitolato "​The Earth Cries Blood​" (2010/2012, ​Pantaleimon dei Current 93​ canta in un brano del disco) che sarà pubblicato A BREVISSIMA dalla label Three Legged Cat Records (ITA), con distribuzione Eclipse Records (USA) e Norman Records (UK), é stato recensito dalla rivista Ritual questo mese. Date un'occhiata alla recensione: ​​ ​​​ ​​Ritual Magazine​​​, April/May 2012. Review by Renato Massaccesi.​ ​The short biography tells of a musician "born in a small industrial town in September 1978" and the city of Sheffield comes immediately to our mind. We are very very far here from all those percussive rhythms and from all those post apocalyptic environments that have marked and that mark a way of expression. Here we are in front of a melancholy folk that reminds bands like Current 93 (Pantaleimon sings in one song here) but also we find here some relaxed atmospeheres which came out from all those 70s records that were difficult to describe as "psychedelia" or as "progressive" music. Here it seems to be transported in liquid landscapes that cross pristine lawns where is possible to see sometimes some disturbing characters ermerging from behind a tree. This just to be alert. We feel fascinated by this record that is much more than a "bucolic" record as it seems to be at first view. ​ ​​ ​​ ​​Ritual Magazine​​​, Aprile/Maggio 2012. Recensione di Renato Massaccesi.​ ​La breve biografia narra di un musicista "nato in un piccolo paese industriale nel Settembre del 1978" e, allora, viene da pensare a quegli scenari tipo Sheffield. Niente di più lontano da quei ritmi percussivi e ambientazioni post apocalittiche che segnarono, e ancora segnano, un modo di esprimersi. Qui, l'espressione è un folk venato di malinconia che ricorda gruppi del giro Current 93 (c'e' Pantaleimon in un brano), ma anche certe atmosfere rilassate che uscivano dai solchi di quei dischi anni 70 che non si sapeva mai se mettere sotto la voce "psichedelia" o "progressive". Fatto sta che in questo album sembra essere trasportati in pasesaggi liquidi che attraversano prati incontaminati, ma che di tanto in tanto lasciano intravedere qualche figura inquietante che sbuca da dietro un albero. Così, tanto per stare sempre all'erta. E tanto per farci affascinare da un disco che, sotto la patina "bucolica", nasconde molto di più. ​ ​​

     I will wake up and go now, and go to the forest, to a cabin build there of clay and straw, nine fruit trees I will plant there, a hive for the honey bee, and live alone, in the bee-loud mountains.
