Marco Marchi & The Mojo Workers is a root blues band with a complete unique approach to blues music. They have been able to carve out a niche in the European blues scene, performing a repertoire of blues from the 1920’s to the 1950’s. From Ragtime to Piedmont Style, from Delta Blues to Country Blues and the early hours of Chicago Blues. This Swiss blues & roots quartet plays music from the time when alcohol was drunk out of teacups and Al Capone would have refilled them. Musical pearls from the pre-war juke joints and speakeasies have been dusted down by Marco Marchi & the Mojo Workers to reveal the mesmerizing and enthralling energy of music from Blind Blake, Mississippi John Hurt, Tampa Red, Blind Boy Fuller and Robert Johnson.
The band is made up of Fabio Bianchi on tuba, Claudio Egli on blues harp and Toby Stiftner on drums and washboard who, together with Marco Marchi, an exceptional guitarist and vocalist, play blues, ragtime and swing numbers from the good old days. Marco and his boys are not tied solely to the rich musical inheritance of the southern states - they also carry the ideals of Ragtime, the Piedmont blues and the Hokum into the 21st century. As a result their own sparkling compositions are in no way lame old-timers and their repertoire is not reduced to nostalgic reminiscences of long-gone days, but is instead an exciting rediscovery of the freshness and power of the music that inspired Rock'n'Roll, the Beat and Soul.
Rejecting the power of modern amplifiers, they choose to play with instruments appropriate to the era, to create an atmosphere of genuine, handcrafted music for fans and aficionados. This conscious focus, together with their highly competent realization, can be seen as the trademark of this formation and marks their uniqueness in the music landscape.
