Dan's BandCampaign Ep 5 - Aymeric Ardimanni
Aymerica Ardimanni was this month's guest and someone I discovered on bandcamp many years ago. Whilst he plays with several bands and artists such as David Zincke, Medi and Koma, it was his solo album "Open" that I first discovered and grew very fond of.
Emotional and honest songs that contain traces of Pink Floyd, Dire Straits and even Radiohead are to be found and loved, along with some excellent guitar solos and atmospheric yet dynamic mixing.
This interview shows that passion, thrill, honesty and drive can take you a long way - from securing a relationship to opening for ZZ Top and Iggy and the Stooges. This man is equal parts head and heart and I think any musician that ever had the love of music will relate to what he has to say.
