Carmelo Salemi

From the land of the mythological Aristaeus, an explosive mixture of sounds and Mediterranean rhythms. Born and resident in Aristaeus's hometown of Syracuse on the east coast of Sicily, CARMELO SALEMI is both master and craftman of the Sicilian penny whistle (the bamboo flute of the ancient Greek shepherds) and the perfect heir for the mythological Aristaeus who enchanted bees with his flute. The group of musicians playing alongside the eclectic virtuoso provide him with excellent musical support, and the frame drums, jew'sharp, complex guitar riffs and Mediterranean harmonies turn every live performance into an unforgettable experience.
