The two brothers are joined on stage by Tom Julian-Jones on harmonica, guitar, and vocals, and Stephen Giry on bass, guitar, and and vocals. They champion a new generation of passionate musicians who share a love for Blues, Soul, R\u0026B, and the true authentic sounds that made the blues a cornerstone of music history. In September 2022, the band won the UK Blues Challenge, and in January 2023, they placed second at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, USA. Their first album, *Babe Please Set Your Alarm*, was recorded at Soup Studio in London, and the full live and analog recording was released in May 2018 in vinyl and digital formats. Music Republic Magazine named Marco Cinelli Best Guitarist of 2018. In November 2021, the band released their second album, *Villa Jukejoint*, in conjunction with a SOLD-OUT concert at London's legendary 100 Club. Recorded at home with a single microphone, the record exudes a unique vintage and retro feel, typical of the 50s and early 60s! In 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, the band was nominated for the UK Blues Awards as \"Blues Band Of the Year.\" In January 2022, the album *Villa Jukejoint* was nominated for the UK Blues Awards as \"Blues Album of the Year.\" In January 2023, the album *No Country For Bluesmen*, their 3rd album released in May 2022, was nominated for the UK Blues Awards as \"Blues Album of the Year.\" The Cinelli Brothers are an example for a generation of passionate musicians who share a love for Blues, Soul, R\u0026B, and the authentic sounds that made the blues a cornerstone of music history. And now we have *Almost Exactly*, a brand new album packed to the brim with vintage treats: the best and most versatile of bluesy retro rock'n'roll, spiced with funk, soul, and everything that makes the Cinelli Brothers one of the hottest \"Blues\" acts around.
