Hugo Race/Michelangelo Russo is a dynamic duo that delivers a unique blend of experimental blues and electronica. Hugo Race, an Australian-born

musician and producer, brings his haunting vocals and intricate guitar work to the table, while Michelangelo Russo, an Italian multi-instrumentalist, adds layers of psychedelic sounds with his electric harp and percussion skills. Together, they create a mesmerizing fusion of traditional blues elements with contemporary electronic beats, taking listeners on a sonic journey through different eras and genres. Their performances are known for their improvisational nature, making each show a one-of-a-kind experience. Hugo Race/Michelangelo Russo truly push the boundaries of what can be achieved

in the realm of music.

In 2017, the duo released John Lee Hooker's World Today (Glitterhouse/Gusstaff Records), a tribute to the blues legend’s delta legacy reinvented in a swirling mix of analog grit and deep trance pulses.

Recorded in a two day live studio session, 100 Years focuses the duo's sonic alchemy on Race’s evocative songwriting. Electric harmonica, echoing guitars, smoky vocals and primal beats in a hypnotic wall of sound suspended in time and space celebrating endurance and redemption, hand-made from ancient roots.

“Tradition does not mean passing the ashes, but the fire.”
