FOLIGNO – Good news for fans of Deftones and the dark wave that they will be able to experience Foligno a unique experience: i Crosses they will in fact be in Italy for the first time ever this summer, for two concerts on the edge of dreams, one of which in Foligno in the splendid scenery ofSan Domenico Auditorium.
The concert scheduled for Thursday June 13th from 7pm is the new event of the event “Foligno On Stage” which then continues the 2023/2024 season with the program designed and organized by Athanor Eventi, in collaboration with Coop Culture, Centro Servizi Foligno, Municipality of Foligno.
Dark and melancholy electronic project by Chino Moreno of the Deftones and the multi-instrumentalist producer Shaun Lopez of the Farthe Crosses are a dreamlike journey between synth pop, dream pop, ambient and trip-hop, where the melody overcomes the raw aggression but not the loss of balance.
Breaking into the Top Ten of the US Heatseekers already with their second EP, Crosses immediately dismayed the international scene. Adopted first by Sumerian Records for their first full length, which rose to 26th place on the Billboard 200 and appeared in the US Top 40 Singles, and later by Warner, the Crosses bewitched none other than Robert Smith (The Cure), Duff McKagan (Guns N ‘ Roses) and Chris Robyn (Far), with whom three breathtaking collaborations immediately emerged.
