Francesco Bianconi

The Profile

Italian singer-songwriter, frontman of the band Baustelle; released the solo album Forever in 2020.

Solo album Forever (2020). Forever features guest vocals by Kazu Makino, Hindi Zahra and Eleanor Friedberger; string parts credited to members associated with the Balanescu Quartet and piano contributions by Michele Fedrigotti and Thomas Bartlett (as noted in DeBaser reviews).

DeBaser hosts two reviews of Francesco Bianconi's solo album Forever (2020). Reviewers note a move to sparse, subtractive arrangements and intense, meticulously crafted lyrics. Guest singers and string arrangements are repeatedly mentioned. Reception is divided: one review praises the lyrical depth and atmospheres, the other criticises monotony and perceived affectation.
