the-breakdown.net - Lontano album launch with Anthony Dettori and Roz Pappalardo

Lontano is an Italian term meaning "far away". It's also the name of a long-distance collaboration between songwriters Anthony Dettori and Roz Pappalardo, who share Italian-Australian heritage and a love of spacious, earthy, alt-country storytelling. Lontano's approach melds different perspectives to unearth surprising new musical narratives, not completely autobiographical, but not fictional either - and always tethered to a shared insight about the physics of the human condition. And it's proving to be a highly productive partnership, with two successful albums and an unexpected recent QMA win under their belt. On this episode of The Breakdown, ahead of the launch of Lontano's third album 'Love without hard lines' (June 20 at The Cave Inn), I catch up with Anthony and Roz, to find out how it all began, how it works, and what the future holds...
