About artist
The Cinelli Brothers is a project born out of a shared passion for the electric blues and soul of the 1960s and 70s, when brothers Marco and Alessandro Cinelli decided to create an explosive band showcasing their own original repertoire.
They are joined on stage by Tom Julian-Jones (harmonica, guitar, vocals) and Jorma (bass, guitar, vocals), forming a powerhouse lineup known for raw energy, dynamic musicianship, and unforgettable live shows.
Their debut album Babe Please Set Your Alarm (2018) was recorded live to analogue tape at Soup Studio in London and quickly reached #2 in the IBBA charts (Independent Blues Broadcasters Association).
The second album, Villa Jukejoint (2021), recorded at home using only one microphone, delivered a unique vintage, retro feel reminiscent of the 50s and early 60s. Released with a sold-out show at London’s iconic 100 Club, it went on to reach #1 in the IBBA charts.
Their third record, No Country for Bluesman (2022), featured collaborations with UK blues greats such as Ian Siegal, Dana Gillespie, Zac Schulze, Alice Armstrong, and more.
From then on, their rise has been meteoric:
- Winners of the UK Blues Challenge (Sept 2022)
- 2nd place at the International Blues Challenge, Memphis (Jan 2023)
- Best Band Award at the UK Blues Federation Awards (Apr 2024)
The latest album, Almost Exactly (Jan 2024), was launched with a release party at The Cutting Room in New York City. It reached #1 in the IBBA charts and was the #2 most played album of 2024.
In 2025, the band continued to innovate, releasing new singles including Dark Side of the Road and Unsingable Song, the latter reaching #10 in the Music Week Club Commercial Pop Chart.
