    Join us as we welcome THE CINELLI BROTHERS to THE VILLAGES BLUES SOCIETY!

    Italian-born brothers Marco and Alessandro Cinelli, together with Tom Julian-Jones (from London) and Stephen Giry (from France) are The Cinelli Brothers. Based in London, this is one of the hottest blues/rock bands in the UK and Europe, where they have been touring extensively for several years.

    • Winners of the 2022 UK Blues Challenge
    • 2nd place winners of the 2023 International Blues Challenge (Memphis)
    • UK Blues Awards nomination as “Blues Band of the Year” for the years 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023
    • UK Blues Awards nomination for “Blues Album of the Year” for No Country For Bluesmen in 2023
    • UK Blues Awards nomination for “Blues Album of the Year” for Villa Jukejoint in 2022
    • Selected to play on Joe Bonamassa’s Keeping the Blues Alive Mediterranean 2023 cruise

    The Cinelli Brothers band thrills live audiences with high energy performances of primarily original material, superb musicianship, charisma, humor and palpable joy in playing. While their music reflects their passion for the blues, and music of the 60s and 70s, their original material is a unique blend of rock, blues and soul, with a twist of contemporary style. A great live band!

    The band’s new album, ALMOST EXACTLY, recorded this year in Woodstock, NY, will be officially released in January, 2024, but you will get some special sneak peeks at this show!

    We fully expect The Cinelli Brothers to attract a huge fan following in the U.S. as they have done across the pond leading up to their full U.S. tour to be launched later this year. This is a great opportunity to see this band in an intimate setting.

    Mathias Lattin is a product of the Houston ISD Fine Arts magnet program. He is a 2020 graduate of Kinder High School for Performing and Visual Arts.

    Mathias Lattin is an emerging young Texas guitarist and product of the acclaimed Kinder High School for Performing and Visual Arts. He’s heavily influenced by music legends B.B. King, Johnny “Guitar” Watson, Albert Collins, and Wes Montgomery. Mathias’s love for music is reflected in the soulful blues, jazz-inflected chords, and funky bass lines. Trained as a jazz guitarist, he incorporates that knowledge in his playing and songwriting.​

    Living Blues Magazine: His debut EP “Let’s Start Here” determined

    “...there’s enough promise here to mark him as an artist to watch.” He continues to pave his way in the Blues, Mathias is on his way to creating his own legacy.

    *****

    <<REVIEWS>>

    “Levon Helm’s singing harmonica man leads his crew through a sophomore set [on Waiting for the Phone to Ring] that is anything but sophomoric. With a jungle blues vibe and powered by non-stop energy, this crew has got the blues right in the pocket delivering a fun, high octane set that makes the only color in blues blue. If you aren’t interested in hearing about picking cotton and fighting boll weevils, this is the stuff for you. Hot stuff.”
    — Chris Spector, editor and publisher, Midwest Record

    “Front man Chris O’Leary carries the group .….with a huge shout and force of nature harmonica sound… he generates authority.”
    — Griel Marcus

    * * * * *

    “O’Leary, formerly with Levon Helm’s Barnburners, is a more than capable singer and Chicago-style harmonica stylist; the proof comes in the shuffles and jump numbers he handles with suave assurance on his debut recording. It’s really the slow tempo of Blues is a Woman that draws out his best singing, reminiscent of Jimmy Witherspoon. His Hudson Valley-based cohorts stir up the all-original material without faltering. Young guitarist Chris Vitarello merits notice for his technical powers and imagination, his reach extending to rockabilly and swinging jazz.”
    — Frank-John Hadley, Downbeat Magazine

    * * * * *

    “O’Leary and company have a laid-back sound, but their solid groove and tight ensemble playing and O’Leary’s superlative songwriting make them a powerful unit.”
    — J. Poet, Rovi
