ANITA CAMARELLA & DAVIDE FACCHINI DUO

«Bello! Originale! Moderno!
Really unusual and frankly sensational: this extremely talented couple satisfy all generations

Pacifica Tribune (San Francisco, U.S.A.)  

The Duo was born, in the year 2000, from the union of two musicians coming from different musical directions.
They benefit from a wide professional experience and have the same passion and curiosity for the different musical languages. Anita Camarella and Davide Facchini draw their knowledge from several musical eras. Anita Camarella comes from 'Ancient Music' and Jazz and Davide Facchini from Jazz, Rock and Blues.
This talented couple boasts a large repetoire. Their music reflects the influences of swing, jazz, and their own compositions for guitar and a'cappella are fresh and original.
In their first project the Duo has been fascinated by 'Italian Swing' from the '30s and '40s: unforgettable lyrics and music, wich tell about typical italian experiences and anecdotes of that era. Their passion for this music culminated, in year 2002, in a recording with the title
"Quei motivetti che ci piaccion tanto!".
The Duo was invited by the Italian Institute of Culture of Tunisi to perform in a tournée in the most important University in Tunisia in order to share and perform this large part of Italian cultural history.
Radio Stations of United States, Australia, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, Hungary, France, Tunisia and Italy have broadcasted their music.
Anita Camarella and Davide Facchini have toured extensively in Italy, in Europe and in the United States (playing in prestigious places as, for exemple, the Nashville's Ryman Auditorium). They have performed together with the biggest artists of the international guitar panorama (Tommy Emmanuel, Stephen Bennett, Muriel Anderson, Thom Bresh, Jim and Morning Nichols, Buster B. Jones, and many others...).
