Fredo Ignazio

Biographie

Fredo Ignazio is a sparkling Solo-Project of the Swiss Singer/Songwriter Claudio Landolt. The young fellow in his twenties doesn't remember exactly when he picked up the guitar and his vocal chords began to swing, which doesn't mean that he's suffering from amnesia, but that it surely is a long long time ago. Fredo Ignazio is composing and recording all his songs on his own. In the centre of his music stand artistic experiments, the will to express, to capture different moods and to approach the inaccessible. The songs he's writing are in principle not performed live, or at least not yet. Fredo Ignazio finishes his current studies and plans to settle down in London, where he already lived for one year before he came back to Switzerland. His future aim is to scatter the seeds of his music from London.

The shelves are spilling over
My shoes won't get untied
I grab above my shoulder
The light switch out of reach
I wouldn't love this yellow booze
If I ain't came down on blues

I hear, my ears are aching
My neighbour slams the door
He's drunker than a pitchfork
He laughs and slaps the whore
I wouldn't love this yellow booze
If I ain't came down on blues

The morning comes to early
I shave and drop the pills
Well I was only joking
but out there there's a lot
I wouldn't drink this yellow booze
If I ain't came down on blues
