MINERVA ROAD IS SET TO RELEASE DANIELA NARDI’S ESPRESSO MANIFESTO -- MACCHIATO67 Remix EP by Gerardo Frisina ON MAY 14, 2013.

“...Stellar...wonderfully atmospheric…infectious...fiery….shimmering…the sensuousness of Sophia Loren blended with the earthiness of Anna Magnani…” JazzTimes 

“Earthy and al dente, clever and fun....Brava Ragazza” Jazz Weekly

Sultry Italian-Canadian songstress Daniela Nardi and her project Espresso Manifesto sizzles on her latest remix release “Macchiato67 – Via Con Me Remix EP”. Already established as one of Canada’s most celebrated homegrown artists, her recently released recording along with this remix, marks a musical and personal milestone for the award winning singer/songwriter/producer.

The passionately crafted album, a tribute to the legendary Italian composer/performer Paolo Conte, has been receiving rave reviews all the way from Italy for Nardi’s enchanting voice and smoldering interpretations of Conte’s work. 

Nardi now takes the songs of Conte a step further with this collaboration with Italian DJ-Composer Gerardo Frisina (Schema/Ishtar). Frisina takes the famous Conte tune “Via Con Me” and creates sizzling, infectious remixes that will be sure to keep all club goers happy. The Macchiato67 EP consists of 3 tracks – Club mix, Vocal Remix as well as, Instrumental Remix.

Nardi says of her choice in working with Frisina, “I really love the Italian lounge scene and have been a fan of Gerardo’s work for some time. I thought it would be really cool if I could introduce a new generation to the works of Paolo Conte. By adding the treatment that we did to the tracks, it helps bring a freshness, new life and if anything further show how timeless Conte’s tracks are when you can make a remix out of it and it sounds like a contemporary track.”

Charting on radio across North America with features on the prestigious KCRW’s ‘Café LA’ with Tom Schnabel, PRI’s The World (syndicated to BBC, NPR and CBC) and Montreal’s Radio Canada, Nardi is well on her way to fulfilling her “manifesto” to bring the spirit of Italy to North America. Recent shows in Toronto and Montreal have been sold out and the band’s debut in New York received rave reviews. Espresso Manifesto is living up to what the Montreal Journal calls a “veritable tour de force – 4.5 out of 5 stars”.
On Espresso Manifesto, Nardi, the Toronto-born daughter of Italian immigrants, explores her heritage, while stepping into adventurous creative territory outside of her musical comfort zone. She and her husband, renowned jazz pianist/composer Ron Davis, traveled to Italy to record the album at Elettra Studios in Umbria. The studio band includes some of Italy's best jazz musicians. Production was by Nardi, with co production from Davis and legendary producer/engineer Pasquale Minieri.
Conte's remarkable songwriting and Nardi's sensitive interpretations give Espresso Manifesto - The Songs of Paolo Conte an effortless universal appeal that transcends cultural and language barriers, satisfying those who understand Italian and those that don’t, to those who appreciate good world music and to the rest who want to explore, experience and live Italian.
