Laura – Perilli – Ukulele Fairytales honors mostly American jazz standards, with few enjoyable exceptions (The Beatles, The Eagles, de Gregori).
It’s just over 50 minutes of music in 23 songs, with the aim of telling short stories, just like fairy tales; concise but complete. The leading instruments are the ukulele and the amazing voice of Laura who has enjoyed doubling or tripling herself to enrich the songs with suggestive choirs.Tha album hosts musicians-friends, which make some tracks even more precious: Matteo Bergamini guitar/dobro/banjo, Gigi Andreone on double-bass, Tazio Forte on accordion, Martino Vercesi on guitar, Massimo Serra on percussions/drums, Giorgio “Cabildo” Sabelli on piano. This is an evocative, fresh and delightful album, All in all, ukulele is an instrument that brings joy. As George Harrison said “You can’t play ukulele and not laugh”
