What happened to the Blacks by chance?

It was Sanremo, 1995. I Blacks by chance, six guys to whom Claudio Mattone decided to give the fatality of his answers in the name (“Why are you all dressed in black?” “It was a coincidence”, and the rest is history), performed at Ariston, the first group chapel to win the Festival, in the category reserved for New Proposals. The song was Land Girls, the voice that of six cousins, united by a common passion for music. I Neri per Caso, which in 2018 would return to Sanremo, Elio’s companions in the evening of the duets, were born in Salerno, children of the desire to change the rules of the musical game.

No orchestra, only the voice, as a unique and extraordinary instrument. I Neri per Caso, Ciro, Gonzalo, Domenico, Mario, Massimo and Daniele, dared to rewrite the canons of the show. And so much daring has finally paid off. The group, which on the third evening of today’s Festival will perform with Ghemon, celebrated i twenty-five years of career, released ten albums and four collections. Over time, they have partially withdrawn from the general public, the national-popular one. But the last concert, when music was still something you can play live, they did last January, at the Alcatraz in Milan.
