OU Italian Sextet

OU and Amy Denio bring you a Mediterranean joyride of vivacious original songs by Sardinian composer Ersilia Prosperi: Folk jazz with fiercely funky rhythms ~ topped with lush vocals sung by all 7 in Sardinian,Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and English!

World-renowned composer and producer Amy Denio met OU in Rome on her birthday last June and fell in love with the sextet's magical sounds. Denio worked with the band through the fall and produced OU's CD Pisces Crisis, released recently to strong reviews. The album, crafted with Floyd Reitsma at Litho Studios (Pearl Jam's studio) in Seattle, is now available on Denio's Spoot Music label.

October 2014 brings multi-instrumentalist Amy Denio and OU together to tour the American West Coast, melding folk, rock and jazz, busting genres and blurring boundaries. OU is ecstatic to be able to share their musical
adventures at the Arcata Playhouse.
