Scoop

About

The Scoop project was born in Foligno in 2014 by bassist Vincenzo Romano. After the succession of various members, the group, initially formed with the aim of studying genres such as jazz, funk, and fusion together, has subsequently reached the current line-up consisting of the sextet: Irene Celli (sax and flute), Nicola d'Oronzo (keyboards), Andrea Mariottini (drums and percussion), Pierluigi Nalli (guitar), Lorenzo Pontini (trombone), and Vincenzo Romano (electric bass and fretless). The band has also been the winner of several local music competitions. The group offers various repertoires that range from funk, jazz, and blues, including various reinterpretations of some classics from the aforementioned genres; some unreleased tracks are also in preparation. Currently, they are performing a tribute to artist Marcus Miller and a repertoire that traces the history of Funk Music.
