"Side A" - Nate Scheible & Ian McColm

577 Records is proud to announce that FEDERICO UGHI’S new album Heart Talk will be released officially in New York City on October 11th, 2016 with an exclusive limited edition of 50 audio cassettes and as a digital download.

"I formed this band 5 years ago. It was always intended as a tribute band to my teacher and friend Ornette Coleman. I, like so many others, have been so inspired by Ornette’s use of melody and it is something that is deeply woven into the compositions we play on this new album, the second from this band after Quartet (FMR, UK 2012). The melodies here invoke the Italian classical and folk music tradition which are the sounds from my childhood and adolescence in Rome. I have tried here to push the band in new directions so that we are always improvising and listening to the room and never repeating ourselves, pressing to the point where, like Ornette did, we deconstruct the composition and rebuild it in the moment. 

On this album, I have introduced electronics in an effort to orient this music in the context of our current culture, where electronic sound permeates every kind of environment. If Ornette were innovating today, I can only imagine that he would be striving to bridge the gap between the experimental acoustic tradition and the present/future of music/art. This is an idea that we as a global art community continue to wrestle with. With this album I want to describe my experience of life in NYC today. Just as I can’t ignore the melodies where I come from, I can’t ignore the digital sound all around me. " -Federico Ughi

Federico Ughi’s new album Heart Talk features long time colleague David Schnug on sax. David has his own record out on 577 Records (David Schnug Trio) and curated a series of three releases for the label that features, in addition to others, rising ECM star Mette Henriette. 

This release is the first time Federico has recorded with both Mike Irwin (trumpet) and Jeff Snyder (electronics). Federico has played with Mike for 10 years in different NYC based projects. Federico and Jeff have played together in audio/visual projects related to Princeton University where Jeff teaches and the two traveled to Sweden together to play.

Additionally, the young, acoustic bass player Zach Swanson plays on 2 tracks and the multitalented New Zealand bred singer Leila Adu, who Federico first met 10 years ago in Rome, is featured on 2 tracks. Leila’s voice can also be found on Federico’s album Songs For Four Cities (577 Records, 2011).

David Schnug -tenor saxophone
Mike Irwin -trumpet 
Jeff Snyder -electronics
