MondOrchestra is a Mediterranean rock band with strong ethnic influence. Blues, reggae and folk music from Sicily make an explosive mixture on their tracks and shows. MondOrchestra’s vocalist, Rocco Pollina, is an original songwriter who sings his songs in Sicilian dialect. MondOrchestra’s songs deal with the violence of war, jail and mafia but they are often full of irony as well. Some of MondOrchestra’s songs belong to Pino Veneziano, a folk songwriter from Selinunte who died quite unknown some years ago. The band was born in Milan around 1997. The name MondOrchestra comes from the old name of the band, Mon Doh. By the way, the contemporary nickname of the band is still Mondò.
This is the editor’s review from http://music.download.com/mondoh
Mon Doh are true sons of the Mediterranean - and the world. Italian folk and African rhythms are fused with trans-Atlantic rock, reggae, ska, blues, pop, and Eastern European horns. Their spunky, punky abandon puts it over with sheer chutzpah. They may sing in Sicilian (and occasionally in African dialect) and tackle newsy topics such as the Mafia, but their musical efforts venture further out.
