Hola la Poyana!
Hola la poyana! is the solo project of Raffaele Badas. After being a stable member of several local rock bands as a guitarist, bassist and singer, a folk and blues attitude slowly developed, leading him to create a new project named "Hola la Poyana", followed by a fake psychedelic Bio with "La Poyana" as a protagonist.
The main purpose of Hola la Poyana! is to research intensity,
especially in his live sessions, through his minimal use of instrumentation.
The project was in fact designed to consist of nothing but vocals, acoustic guitar and stomp box, combined with lyrics that mix irony and melancholy. HLP! has shared the stage with Geoff Farina (Karate and many others.
His main influences are the blues of Skip James and Mississippi...
