ANTONIO TODESCO
Class of '92. Law degree in his pocket and guitar in his hand.
He starts strumming in middle school, but love at first sight in high school.
In addition to the animation of the Holy Mass, an unmissable stop for a guitarist who takes his first lessons in the oratory, for some time he passes from one group to another, playing the most varied genres, with one constant: holding the guitar. Also in that period he discovers himself as a guitar teacher, dedicating himself to some young students in his spare time.
With the university the time to play is less, but the passion for music remains: reconciling personal and study commitments, he takes part as a solo guitarist in an emerging cover band by Ligabue. In 2015 he decided to deepen the study of the acoustic flatpicking guitar with the maestro Roberto Dalla Vecchia.
His style is influenced by numerous influences and is a mix of full-bodied and powerful chords, effective riffs and bluesy solos.
The collaboration with Lorenzo boils in the pot almost from the first meeting, when both are involved in youth ministry in their respective parishes. With the end of his studies, the project becomes more concrete: he participates in the video "Basta trust" and, towards the end of 2016, accompanies Lorenzo in the first concerts together.
ALESSANDRO CASTAGNA
Alessandro Castagna is a 27-year-old boy from Vicenza who meets music from an early age, which seems to have been part of the family for generations.
Starting from the great-grandfather, organ player and music writer, passing from his cousin who plays trumpet and guitar, other family members who play drums and bass, arriving at his father who played the electric guitar.
From Easter 2009 he officially joined the Youth Choir of the parish of Monteviale as a guitarist.

Currently in the group "Derange" he plays acoustic guitar, flutes and has become the main voice, constantly evolving to create and research an increasingly refined style.
OSCAR WAR
Oscar, born in 1992, began his musical journey about three years ago by learning to play the classical guitar as a self-taught, taking some private lessons and attending musician friends.
Thus began to support Antonio Todesco in the animations of the Holy Masses; he discovers his love for bass, a little by chance and a little by necessity, like all bassists, and since 2014 he has been part of an Italian rock band, which then evolves into a Ligabue cover band: the StereoLiga .
His interest is not limited to the music played on stage, but also deals with sound in the broad sense and supports the theater company "La Giostra" as a sound and lighting technician.
His musical influences are the well-known bassist from Vicenza Davide Pezzin, the legendary Roger Waters and the charismatic Flea: he tries to approach them both in terms of technique and style.
He meets Lorenzo as an animator of young groups and, after a few years, accepts the proposal to play together in his testimony concerts.
In 2021 he acquired the diploma of Sound Technician, starting a close collaboration with some important theatrical realities of Vicenza.
