Happy Hour Harmonica Podcast Fabrizio Poggi interview
Fabrizio Poggi joins me on episode 137.
Fabrizio plays blues, folk and spiritual music. Hailing from near Milan, he took some time to find his way with the harmonica but since then he has performed at Carnegie Hall and been nominated for a Grammy.
His first band was Chicken Mambo who played New Orleans music on their early album releases.
Fabrizio traveled around the US where he made lots of friends and great strides with his musical development.
This culminated with the making of an album in 2013 where the Blind Boys of Alabama and Charlie Musselwhite make an appearance. Fabrizio then teamed-up with Guy Davis where their second album together, Sonny & Brownie’s Last Train, was nominated for a Grammy in 2018.
