A band composed by three musicians, that had already been publicly known by having played next to many Italian and international famous artists.
The three musicians, Giorgio Buttazzo (guitar and voice); Gabriele Monti (guitar and voice) and Kamsin Giordano Urzino (bass and voice), first met in a lucky chance encounter, and since that moment they have been sharing their personal talent to put together an ensemble where the result coming from their cooperation is much bigger and higher than the simple sum of their single capacities.
The birth of the band took place almost fortuitously: during the sound-check of a Pierangelo Bertoli’s acoustic concert, an Italian songwriter and singer they were leading on stage at that time, the audience felt touched and taken-in by the music they were hearing coming from their guitars.
Something new and peculiar was going to start.
The musicians, by their side, felt this too, and the sound check became, itself, a little concert.
The Trio has been invited in Venice to play at the Venezia Suona and at the Festival Les nuits de la Guitare in Patrimonio (Corse Island, France). Sponsored next to Paco de Lucia, along with Jeff Beck, Buena Vista Social Club, Duo Assad and Robben Ford.
They had a special concert with Stanley Jordan.
Bermuda Trio have taken part of the Salento Guitar Festival, on stage with special guests such as Paolo Giordano, Peter Finger, Harvey Reid, Armando Corsi.
Since year 2001 they’ve been playing at every edition of very famous Soave Guitar Festival, near Verona, north of Italy. Playing next to a lot of very famous musicians such as Franco Cerri, Tommy Emmanuel, John Jorgenson, Stephen Bennet, Pedro Javier Gonzalez’s Trio, to name but a few.
In April 2002 they organized a concert in Reggio Emilia, where they played together with great Australian finger-style guitarist TOMMY EMMANUEL.
After that very successful concert the Trio met Tommy Emmanuel on stage in other several occasions.
In May 2005 the Trio was invited, as Special Guest, to play at one of the biggest international guitar festival: the Dunquerque Finger Picking Festival, where the band had a very successful concert.
In May 1998 they published their first live CD LIVE AT JOHNNY FOX'S, an album with several music pieces recorded in two of their concerts, one in Modena, the other one in Reggio Emilia. The work is kind of a picture that shows the intensive musical activity of their exordium times, and that transmits the emotive shock that still today can be felt at their concerts.
In December 1999 their second album, titled LIVIN’ STUDIO, comes out.
Its title is not fortuitous. In fact, instead of the first one, which represented the meaning of their intensive live career so far, this new album is a compilation of tracks they usually play in live setting, recorded, though, in a comfortably recording studio.
The special guests who participated into this album are
The last CD album, published in 2005, is called BERMUDA PLAYS PINK.
The idea to create a whole CD dedicated to mythical Pink Floyd’s band followed, besides a desire of the Trio, a specific wish that the audience people used to express after every concert where they could listen to a remade Pink Floyd’s song played by Bermuda Acoustic Trio
Wish You Were Here
Bermuda Acoustic Trio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But with you, it's not like that at all
There's a girl
that gives a shit
Behind this wall
you just walk through it
And I remember
All those crazy things you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
Right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it, just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you here, here, here
I wish you were here
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you near, near, near
(I wish you were here)
I love, the way you are
It's who I am, don't have to try hard
We always say, say it like it is
And the truth, is that I really miss
All those crazy things you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
Right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it, just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you here, here, here
(I wish you were here)
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you near, near, near
(I wish you were here)
No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I, never wanna let go
Let go oh oh Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you here, here, here
(I wish you were here)
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you near, near, near
(I wish you were here)
