Lauded Italian jazz guitar virtuoso and music producer/songwriter Fabrizio Sotti has premiered his new song "The Wind Cries Mary" featuring Grammy Award-winner Melanie Fiona today on Okayplayer.com. PRESS HERE<http://www.okayplayer.com/news/fabrizzio-sotti-melanie-fiona-hendrix-cover-mp3.html> to listen to Fabrizio and Melanie's unique take on the Jimi Hendrix classic. Fabrizio's new solo album Right Now will be released May 14, 2013, via Sotti Entertainment, Inc. For a taste of what's to come, PRESS HERE<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oZCyNLqUqQ>.

Mixing his jazz and pop sensibilities for the first time as a recording artist, Fabrizio has assembled an exciting and unexpected list of guests on the album, including R&B powerhouse Melanie Fiona, reggae superstar Shaggy, hip-hop icons Ice T and M-1 of Dead Prez, alt-soul singer Res, European pop legend Zucchero, acclaimed composer/multi-instrumentalist/producer Mino Cinélu, Chilean jazz vocalist Claudia Acuña, soul singer Alegbra Blessett and rising Swedish star Isabella Lundgren. Right Now features original songs and timeless covers of popular tunes, all produced and arranged by Fabrizio. PRESS HERE<http://soundcloud.com/sotti-entertainment/fabrizio-sotti-the-wall-feat> to listen to album track "The Wall" featuring Ice T, M-1 of Dead Prez and Res, a cover of the legendary Pink Floyd song. Other songs that have been re-worked into mesmerizing jazz-pop gems, include Bob Marley's "Waitin' In Vain," U2's "One" and Cesária Évora's "Fidjo Maguado."

Fabrizio will play special album release shows at Blue Note in New York City on May 14th and May 15th and will be joined by some of the album's guests including Res, M-1 of Dead Prez, Mino Cinélu, Tony Grey, Claudia Acuña and Isabella Lundgren.

Right Now is Fabrizio's first release since Another Country, his highly praised 2012 collaboration with Grammy-winning jazz artist Cassandra Wilson. Sparked by the idea of "right now," Fabrizio's ever-bubbling creativity led him to begin working on an album with voices, instrumentation and song choices that would eloquently evoke the joy of contentedness and living in the moment. By drawing from all corners of his personal memories and his more than two-decade genre-spanning career as a jazz guitarist and producer for everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Cassandra Wilson to Q-Tip to K'NAAN, Fabrizio's creative expression has blossomed.  The result is a rich and authentic album that welcomes music fans of all genres to come along for the ride.
