CLAUDIO SIMONETTI'S GOBLIN on tour in North America featuring members of BLACK MAMBA

Published October 4 2023 at 22:07

Claudio Simonetti (born 19th February 1952) is an Italian musician and film composer. The keyboardist of the iconic progressive rock band GOBLIN, Simonetti has specialized in the scores for Italian and American horror films since the 1970s.

A long-time collaborator of director Dario Argento, Simonetti has worked on several of the director/producer's films including 'Deep Red', 'Suspiria', 'Dawn of the Dead', 'Tenebrae', 'Phenomena', 'Demoni', and 'Opera'. His work has long been an iconic staple of Italian genre cinema, collaborating with directors like Ruggero Deodato, Umberto Lenzi, Lucio Fulci, Enzo G. Castellari, Lamberto Bava, and Sergio Martino. 

Following last year's very successful 'Suspiria' tour, Claudio Simonetti's Goblin is hitting the road this fall to perform the live score to 'Demons', followed by a set of other classic Goblin compositions across North America. 

Claudio Simonetti now plays with a new manifestation of the prolific Italian instrumental act that includes guitarist Daniele Amador, bassist Cecilia Nappo, and drummer Federico Maragoni, the later 2 forming the nucleaus of Italian rockers BLACK MAMBA.

In addition to the Demons dates, the band will play a best-of set at Eerie Horror Fest in Pennsylvania, while the tour's Canadian stops will feature a Suspiria live score.
