UBU Pays Homage to Influential Co-Founder with Self-Titled Tribute Album
Global artist collective UBU has released a touching tribute album, honoring their visionary founding member, Marco Trinchillo. The self-titled album, which boasts 11 powerful tracks, brings together a diverse group of artists who have all been inspired by Trinchillo’s creative genius.
UBU is more than just a band, it is a community of artists from various backgrounds, united by their passion for music and the vision of their co-founder, Marco Trinchillo. Initially, UBU was just a side project for Trinchillo and his friend Mattia Mercuriali, who also achieved success as the band Amycanbe. However, they soon realized that UBU had the potential to reach new heights and decided to create an album.
The album was recorded over the course of two years by UBU and their producer Franco Naddei at ‘L’Amor Mio Non Muore’ studio in Forli, Italy. Despite the challenges of the ongoing pandemic, the artists poured their hearts into the project, with Trinchillo leading the way with his infectious energy and unparalleled creativity. Unfortunately, tragedy struck when Trinchillo passed away suddenly due to cardiac arrest, just as the album was nearing completion. In his memory, UBU decided to release the record as a tribute to their beloved co-founder and friend.
The result is a moving and inspiring album that perfectly captures the spirit of UBU and the legacy of Trinchillo. Throughout the album, Trinchillo’s influence can be felt in every note, every beat, and every lyric. His talent as a self-taught drummer and photographer shines through, as his legacy continues to inspire artists across different mediums. From his stunning photography, which has been featured in renowned publications such as The Guardian, Vogue, and Dazed, to his contributions to the music industry, Trinchillo will always be remembered as a true creative force. UBU’s tribute album is a beautiful and fitting tribute to a remarkable artist who left an indelible mark on the world. It serves as a reminder that although Trinchillo may be gone, his spirit lives on through his art and the artists he inspired. UBU is available now on all streaming platforms, serving as a lasting tribute to a truly unforgettable artist.
