Federico Giacobazzi is a singer-songwriter and instrumentalist who’s been quietly crafting an expansive and truly impressive musical world. Working under the artistic moniker Giack Bazz, he’s been rolling out an indie rock sound over the last decade that wraps his profound lyricism in thrilling arrangement with a progressive approach.
Back in 2008 he started his songwriting journey and in 2015 his bandmates nudged him to start working on a solo endeavour. A successful crowdfunding campaign paved the way for his debut album, Childhood Dream, which was released the next year to critical acclaim and even inspired a theatrical adaptation as a rock opera.
In 2020, in support of The Ivors’ Academy and the Musician’s Union campaign #fixstreaming, Giack Bazz unveiled a groundbreaking work with his side project The Royalty Instrumentality Project, releasing the monumental 366-song album Impression A.I. He’s since continued to dazzle audiences worldwide with a series of singles and albums as he presents his incredible catalogue of music.
This year he’s set to add to his discography with two new full-length records titled Just a Little Bit More Famous and Bedtime Stories For Computers. Having already revealed his latest chapter this year with singles “Come Te” and both an English and Italian version of “The Moon Is Painted,” he now brings us his latest release with the brand new single titled “Funny Days.”
Brought in by Giack’s soft vocals above the strums of acoustic guitar, backed by hushed harmonies, the song casts an intimate feel of bright melodies and poignant lyricism about making making decisions and taking a leap of faith to do something worthwhile and spontaneous. With the slide of bass guitar, the full arrangement of shuffling drums, layers of rhythm guitar and delicate lead flutters takes shape to form a charming indie rock sound.
Peppered with the buzz of synth tones and lifted by lush backing vocals, “Funny Days” is a delightful outing that builds from the elegant folk pop vibe in the intro to burst into a sensational rock energy. Swelling with the rising intensity of his voice as it takes flight, the song charges with rousing lead guitar lines over splashy drums before a moment of bleeping mechanical tones provides a brief respite before an emphatic finale.
