How It's Done in Italy


Le tre fanciulle scandinave che prendono il nome di My Bubba and Mi sembrano quasi non voler sapere nulla della loro stessa musica. Preferiscono appropriarsi dei tanti piccoli dettagli oggi trascurati e dispersi tra gli zero e gli uno della traduzione digitale. Tutti questi particolari le My Bubba and Mi li hanno raccolti con cura e racchiusi in uno scrigno a forma di disco intitolato How It's Done In Italy.
L'amore per i tempi andati, per il banjo e il tè con i biscotti è stato raccontato, cantato e suonato dalle ragazze durante l'estate del 2009 in una vecchia casa nelle campagne bresciane, proprio dove cominciano le Alpi. Il suono è quello dei prati pieni di sole e delle passeggiate di notte. In mezzo ci sono anche tante cose che scricchiolano, non c'è nessun trucco né finzione, forse soltanto un po' di sogno. Ascoltare How It's Done In Italy è come entrare piano nella cucina dove le ragazze stanno suonando, tra una tavola e il camino. A chi ama infilare la musica nei cassetti, suggeriremmo di cercare in quello del pre-folk, o in quello dell'old-blues, oppure, più semplicemente, di trovare un cassetto nuovo e scriverci sopra My Bubba and Mi.

How It's Done In Italy esce l'8 Marzo su We Were Never Being Boring su CD ed LP (con magnifiche copertine fatte a mano!). Inoltre verrà licenziato per il BeNeLux da Beep! Beep! Back up the Truck.
Dal 25 Marzo al 30 Aprile My Bubba and Mi saranno in tour in Europa e in Italia per presentare le magnifiche canzoni presenti su “How It's Done In Italy”.


The three Scandinavian girls who go by the name My bubba & Mi don´t seem to make a big fuzz about their music. Rather, they focus on the small details that are neglected or lost these days - the things between the zeroes and ones of digital translation. All these little details have been lovingly collected by My Bubba & Mi and carefully placed in a record-shaped container entitled How It's Done In Italy.
During the summer of 2009 the girls sung, played and told of their love for old times, for banjo, and the romantic life, in an old house in the Brescian countryside, right where the Alps begin. The sound recalls sunny fields and night strolls. In the gaps there are things that creak - no tricks, no fakes, perhaps only the hint of a dream. Listening to How It's Done in Italy is like silently entering a kitchen where the girls are playing between the table and the fireplace. For those who like to place their music into drawers, we suggest you look into the pre-folk one, or the old blues one. Or just find an empty one and label it My Bubba & Mi.

How It’s Done In Italy will be released on March 8th by We Were Never Being Boring (CD and LP with amazing handmade covers!) and licensed for Benelux by Beep! Beep! Back up the Truck. From March 25th to May 1st the band will be on tour in Europe to share with you the beautiful melodies from the album. Not to be missed!!
