Juan Carrizo’s dada – Argentina

Festival debut, Y2K24 Artist

dada is a journey to spontaneous composition. Starting with a chord, a strum, a hit, a word, an image or a memory, the whole musical-sonic-visual journey unveils for the audience. The tools involved are live looping, improvisation, experimentation and the experiences of more than twenty years of breathing music, images and sound (and travels, people, cities and so on).

Born in Patagonia and living between Mexico and Argentina, Juan Carrizo is an independent guitarist and Live looping artist. He is member of the contemporary jazz project “Renewal Music Collective” and symphonic metal act “Anna Fiori”. 

Juan has worked with Grammy winners Steve Thompson (Metallica, Madonna, Korn) and Hernan Hecht (A Love Electric, Ely Guerra, Loli Molina) and Heavy Metal legends Tony Martin (Black Sabbath), Blaze Bayley (Iron Maiden) and Hansi Kürsch (Blind Guardian) among others. 

His credentials include, besides music, filmmaking (UNS) and a sound postproduction (UNLa) degrees. He has taken courses with such talented people as Leo Sujatovich, Martin Pavlovsky, Pino Marrone, Gary Burton and Alan Parsons. Now he is a student of the Sound Creation with New Technologies course in the CMMAS.

Donata Greco – Italy

Festival debut, Y2K23 Artists

Donata Greco is a wind player, multi-instrumentalist, singer and composer. She was born and raised in Naples, Italy. Her music is a mix between the nostalgia she learned from the classical neapolitan music and a bit of funk. She loves to experiment with various genres and to reinvent the role of her chosen instruments. Everything rotates around the deep, brilliant sound of her alto saxophone blended with some flute, tiny shakers, and some vintage synth here and there. Her loops serve as the landscape that allows her to do what she loves the most: expressing herself through improvisation.
