Right Now (Fabrizio Sotti album)


Right Now is a 2013 studio album released by Italian-American Jazz guitarist Fabrizio Sotti. The album is notable for its blending of Sotti's backgrounds as a jazz musician, hip-hop producer, and pop songwriter across collaborations with Shaggy, Ice-T, Tony Grey, Mino Cinelu, Zucchero, Melanie Fiona, Isabella Lundgren, M1 of Dead Prez, and more.
The album was recorded at Fabrizio's Sotti Studios in NYC and mixed at Piety Studios in New Orleans by legendary engineer John Fishback, while Sotti produced and arranged all of the songs on the album.
Right Now was inspired by Sotti's diverse musical background, and a range of his musical inspirations. The album features reinterpretations of Pink Floyd's "The Wall," Jimi Hendrix's “The Wind Cries Mary,” and Bob Marley's “Waitin’ in Vain” alongside Sotti's own songs and compositions.
