Ginger B.

Ginger B. was born in Pisa on June 27, 1994. A member of a large family (eleven elements), in his childhood he had no shortage of creative stimuli: he studied piano, guitar, violin, computer music and, of course, drums. Interested in studies of sound manipulation and acoustics, he specialized by attending a course for Sound Technicians, embarking on a career in the Piedmont and Tuscany area. Then he decided to deepen his studies of improvised music, this time acoustic, attending the Jazz Drumming course at Siena Jazz University, graduating with full marks. He is currently finishing his academic course at the Conservatorio B. Marcello in Venice. Among his most influential teachers we find Silvia Bolognesi, Jim Black, Ziv Ravitz, Alessandro Paternesi, Fabrizio Sferra, Joe Sanders, Stefano Battaglia. Since 2018 he has been a member of the “Young Shouts”, led by Silvia Bolognesi and winner in 2020 of the "New Generation Jazz" award established by “I-Jazz” and with two active records. The first of these ("aLive Shouts", 2019) was recognized by “Bandcamp” as one of the best jazz recordings in August 2019. Other stable ensembles in which we find him on drums and/or electronics are: “Fonterossa Open Orchestra”, “Mr. Noe”, “Glauco LoFi”.
