Summer Music Festivals Light Up Puglia and Marche, Italy

The SEI Festival celebrated its twentieth edition at the historic Castello di Corigliano d’Otranto in Puglia. Organized by Coolclub with support from the Ministry of Culture and the Regione Puglia, the event featured Turin‑based Bull Brigade and Puglian punk groups Sud Disorder and Belintesta, offering a mix of concerts, theater, books and dance as part of a multidisciplinary programme.

In Marche, the fusion project "Dreaming" led by bassist Matteo Grandoni performed at the Otto Seaside venue in Civitanova on 28 July. Part of the "Fuori dal Guscio – Traiettorie musicali e di gusto" series, the quartet added original compositions and reinterpretations of fusion classics, with guest musicians on guitar, drums and piano, creating an atmospheric blend of jazz and contemporary sounds.
