G.A.S. – Gruppo Autonomo Suonatori started in 1997 from an idea by Claudio Barone, who previously played in a Le Orme tribute band in the early ’70s named Trio Pop. G.A.S. was born with the help of ’70s musicians along with other young musicians. The band made his first concert in October 1997 at Theatre Palmaria in La Spezia as Garybaldi’s opening act with the unforgettable guitar hero Bambi Fossati, the same theatre where, a few months before, Le Orme made their live comeback in La Spezia after 20 years (concert organized by Claudio Barone). After a few lineup changes, from the early 2000s onwards, the band started playing many gigs with the current band: Claudio Barone (bass, lead vocals, mandolin), Simone Galleni (guitar, bass), Andrea Imparato (sax, flute), Valter Bono (drums), Thomas Cozzani (synths), Andrea Foce (piano, flute). G.A.S. has often legendary guests from the Italian ’70s prog scene such as Lino Vairetti (Osanna), Martin Grice and Ettore Vigo (Delirium), Tony Pagliuca (Orme), Nunzio “Cucciolo” Fava (Osage Tribe, Dik Dik). After a 25 year long career, they decided to record the first studio album titled ‘Omnia Sunt Communia’ which features their vintage classic prog sound together with elements of various musical styles such as medieval music, romantic ballads and a touch of psychedelic jazz.
