Novecento, FAMILY AFFAIR Italian smooth-jazz quartet Novecento is picking up jazz airplay in the United States through a collaboration with virtuoso guitarist Stanley Jordan. Since its debut in 1984, the band has recorded a string of albums at its studio outside Milan, licensing them internationally through its own Nicolosi Productions label. Major jazz acts that have appeared on those sets include Billy Cobham. Jordan guested on the 2002 album "Novecento Featuring . . ." before collaborating on "Dreams of Peace," released in Italy in October 2003. The album appeared in the United States in August 2004, licensed to guitarist Steve Vai's Favored Nations Cool imprint. One track, "Easy Love" recently hit the No. 1 airplay spot at New York's WQCD-FM. Novecento’s album reached No. 45 on iTunes' U.S. jazz download chart. The act will work on projects with Sting and Gabrielle during 2005. MARK WORDEN Billboard....video with GKB,STING & NOVECENTO .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ....
