Hugo Race with Michelangelo Russo - Kindred Bandroom

Fatalists album launch: I Made It All Up For You

Hugo Race returns after collaborative albums with Steve Kilbey (Speed of the Stars ‘While Italy Dreamed’), Michelangelo Russo (‘100 Years’) and Gianni Maroccolo (‘The Vigil’, winner of the prestigious Premio Ciampi Speciale) with I Made It All Up For You, an epic album with his Italian band Fatalists - existential songwriting framed by the band's fusion of roots, electronica, Italian soundtracks and desert rock.

“Fatalists recorded the basic tracks at the floating studio on the Puccini lake an hour out of Florence - Giovanni Ferrario (Scisma, PJ Harvey) on guitars and synth, Francesco Giampaoli (Sacri Cuori/Brutture Moderne) on bass and Diego Sapignoli (Sacri Cuori) on percussion. Jennifer Charles (singer of Elysian Fields) graces this album on the songs I Collide and Broken Love, the lyrics co-written by author/designer Alannah Hill.

A lot of joy and pain and reflection went into the making of this album and I hope that comes across. I made it all up for you..."
