The Profile

Neapolitan artist Enzo Avitabile teams with the Bottari—percussionists from Portico using barrels and work tools—to fuse Campania’s folk pulse with global colors and his sax-driven melodies, often tackling social and civil themes on stage and on record.

The Bottari play barrels, vats, and tools in a peasant-ritual style; Avitabile sings and plays sax. Themes include Naples, Palestine, and Africa. A notable live set supported anti-incinerator protests in Acerra.
