Telling the story of VIA DEL BLUES is equivalent to recall the musical events of the city of Bari around the year 1969. In that unique period founders Gino Giangregorio and Dino Panza became spokesmen of a music able to join people and discover things not yet seen and heard. Few money and no good quality instruments were the main features of that period; many groups born in that phase but they lasted a moment. VIA DEL BLUES, however, has been able to continue on the path (sometimes changing companions) always leaving intact its spirit: fun, dream and especially playing Blues, Folk, Country and Rock. Over the years the band has also collaborated with many prominent artists like Herbert Pagani, Ivan Graziani, Roberto Ottaviano and Manfred M. Junius. In 2003, after years spent playing the best songs from the american and british music scenes, the band consists of Gino Giangregorio on guitar, Dino Panza on harmonica and Gaetano Quarta on lead vocals produced their first album of original songs: "Trouble Trouble". Not stisfied by the considerable feedback obtained from the first CD, in november 2004 VIA come back to the recording studio for the making of "Let The Band Play!". The work, published in may 2005, not only confirms the bluesy sound of its predecessor but expressed greater openings to rock, a trend that is also reflected in the next "Another Way" (february 2009). In july 2011, VIA DEL BLUES has the honor to share the stage of 'City of Brindisi Blues Festival' with Popa Chubby. With the entry of Luigi Catella and Marco Barile the band released "World Out There" (february 2013) and "Five By Five" (october 2015).
