Dum Dum Republic and La Terza Classe: an extraordinary combo for the most famous May Day concert by the sea, with a powerful live show that is all about dancing. On stage the Neapolitan band, between folk, pop and bluegrass sounds, awaiting the release of the first album of unreleased songs that La Terza Classe recorded with Joe Bastianich “The Restaurant Man”, anticipated by the single “This good man”, which will be followed by a long tour that will touch the entire peninsula throughout the summer.
The sound of the Dum Dum Republic dancefloor will start to vibrate from 16 pm, with the open act entrusted to Dj Madkid, undisputed master in the art of mixing the best black music ever in a unique and engaging blend. Following the icon of the sound system in Italy, pioneer of reggae, who has graced the biggest stages in the world including Rototom & Friends, LampaDread, in a live set between reggae vibrations and freedom.
A unique performance, from the ghettos of Kingston in Jamaica to the suburbs of the Bronx in New York, to Irish folk, to visceral blues, in the name of research and experimentation.
Dum Dum Republic expands the boundaries of experience. Unshakable faith in Peace & Love, freedom, human rights, friendship, in a musical journey projected towards world music, in a pressing sound to dance barefoot, in a meeting of peoples and cultures, in the typical Dum Dum Style that reinterprets the relationship between musician and audience, far from mainstream music and homologation, without separations or barriers. The horizon line, the border between sky and sea, is the backdrop.
The project La Terza Classe was born on the street, in Naples in October 2012. It is in this place, on the street, that the band began to produce music and entertainment by playing traditional, unreleased and modern songs inspired by American and European folk: from Kentucky bluegrass to dixieland, or early jazz, from the Southern States, to Irish folk, up to jug band songs, all combined with the “theatricality” and expressiveness typically Neapolitan, which they pour into their first self-produced EPs.
Folk, pop and bluegrass mark the stylistic evolution of the band. La Terza Classe is, in fact, an atypical band for the Italian music scene, Neapolitan at heart but American in spirit. A very strange combination that has characterized them since the beginning when their busking activity took them around Italy and Europe.
