Herbert Pixner & The Italo Connection – The Road Movie

"I wanted to do something loud again, something dirty, where we play full throttle," says Herbert Pixner, describing the idea behind the project. "The Italo Connection" is a kind of supergroup with Mario Punzi (drums), Max Castlunger (percussion), Marco Stagni (bass), Martl Resch (sax), Alex Trebo (keyboards) and Manuel Randi (guitar).
Christoph Franceschini and Mauro Podini accompanied the band with camera and microphone on the entire 2019 tour. From Sterzing to Hamburg via Rankweil, Salzburg to Berlin. The result is a gripping road movie about the touring life of the seven musicians, the man and musician Herbert Pixner and the passion for music.
