Lamp Off

Lamp Of(f) is a collaborative musical experience by Stanimir Lambov (guitar/fx), Gabriele
Bertossi (bass) and Ruggero Di Luisi (drums and percussion). The trio focuses on both composed
and improvised music, and aims playing in a way that creates an immersive experience. Although
inspired by jazz, the musicians are cultivating their sound by happily embracing wherever the
music brings them. Through their love for playing live and the incredible empathy and acceptance
they show to each other, the musicians create a live show worth experiencing.
The band was created in the summer of 2021 when guitarist Stanimir invited Gabriele and
Ruggero to play some of his compositions together. They all felt a connection and decided to
explore further what this alliance brings.
Inspired by the need for new harmonic approaches on the guitar, as well as his interest in classical
music, Lambov is exploring the application of counterpoint to improvisation on the guitar. The
trio format provides just the perfect amount of sonic space for these concepts. Through them and
through working with guitar effects, the guitarist is on a quest to share his sonic universe with the
world.
Although Stanimir is the one who initiated the band, in it, there are no leaders or followers. The
musicians are curious to find ways of playing and improvising together as a unit, using the space
provided to them and especially playing together with the ambiance of the room as well as the
silence.
