I Marta sui Tubi are preparing to close in style a year that has seen them become a landmark of the Italian alternative scene. The great success of the album "Sushi & Coke, released on their own label Tamburi Usati, has also infected the live season, during which they held over 60 concerts in 50 different Italian cities, to which they will add the last stages planned between November and December, plus a special event on 14 January in Milan, 'Miss Dominique Night' (on the bands' website all the info on the evening).
For Marta sui Tubi, 2009 was full of engagements and successes, from the 1 May concert in Piazza San Giovanni in Rome, where they presented together with others the project curated by Manuel Agnelli, 'The country is real'up to the recent victory of Carmelo Pipitone as best guitarist at the Insound Trophy.
But above all, Marta sui Tubi have been grinding out kilometres, sweat and notes on a tour that started last February and will end with this series of dates in some of Italy's best clubs. The last date, on 14 January in Milan, will be even more special: for now, no rumours about the surprises that will Giovanni, Carmelo, Ivan, Mattia and Paolo have designed for the occasion.
