'Scaramouche' Album Launch: With original music by guitarist Serci and lyrics by Campus, 'Scaramouche' explores sounds and atmospheres inspired by the Sardinian roots of these two London based musicians.

“This singular Sardinian gleefully and expertly builds a multilingual set of beautifully stylish original songs… Hers is the most international of musics so she’s often gigging abroad; catch her when you can” Roger Thomas – JAZZUK

“Fresu is one of the most seductive trumpet players in jazz, a heart-on-sleeve romantic, a purveyor of graceful, flowing lyricism, with a golden, sensual trumpet sound” JAZZTIMES

"Orphy Robinson is one of the finest jazz vibes players around, famous on the UK scene since his 1980s work with Courtney Pine in the Jazz Warriors. Virtuosic and versatile, he’s played with everyone from Andy Sheppard to Nigel Kennedy" – LondonJazz.

“Sardinian Guitarist Giorgio Serci’s music is utterly mesmerizing” Phil Castang – IGF

“One of the best acoustic guitarist right now but also one of the most inventive musicians on the circuit" - Jazz Umbrella
