Bio:
“Night Hunter” is the debut from DANIEL GAZZOLI PROJECT released via Street Symphonies Records. This young Italian guitarist / songwriter is a true fan of late '80s Melodic Hard Rock, declaring as main influences the likes of Whitesnake, Bon Jovi, House Of Lords, etc.And indeed all tracks featured on this very interesting debut are impregnated by those classy melodies, of course driven by sharp guitar riffs and adorned by keys / synths arranged in the typical fashion of the glorious era. Gazzoli play both and also handles bass and backing vocals.But for a 'true band sound' you need real musicians and you have here Luca Ferarresi - drummer of the very solid AOR act Perfect View, and strong vocalist Leonardo F. Guillan, already known in the melodic rock scene for a previous live collaboration with Soul Seller.As result, the Daniel Gazzoli Project feels really tight and the songs come flawlessly executed.The album is pretty varied including melodic rock numbers like title track, 'Run' and 'Dont Leave Me Alone', then more straight hard rockers such as 'Forged by the Pain' and the racy 'The Beat of My Heart'.On the AOR side there's the keyboard-driven 'Liar' (my favorite on the album), the cool 'Heartblame', and the well arranged power ballad 'Prayer for an Angel' including pianos and acoustic / electric guitars. Guillan's vocals moves with ease throughout the different song's pace.Produced by Gazzoli and mixed & mastered by renowned producer Davide Rossi, “Night Hunter” is a really good slice of '80s Melodic Hard Rock.Not only you have solid musicianship but, essentially, very, very good tunes. The verses, bridges and choruses are really well constructed on all songs following the classy formula from the genre, but adding that special touch to make some of them memorable.Second album "Stranger In My Own Town" (2026).
Album:
The Daniel Gazzoli Project from Italy with their sophomore album.The mastermind, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist himself along with vocalist Giacomo Rossi (EMBRACE OF SOULS) successfully combines AOR, hard and pomp rock to create melodic soundscapes. The sound is roughly similar to acts like SKAGARAK and PRETTY MAIDS. Strong tracks like "The Place Of My Heart", "I Will Carry On" or "On The Run" immediately stick in your ear and everything is wrapped into a fine and versatile production. Timeless music that should appeal to every rock fan.The project translates the artistic vision of multi-instrumentalist Daniel Gazzoli (guitars, bass, drums, and arrangements) into music, crafting energetic and melodic hard rock, proudly infused with retro sounds that hark back to the great and classic tradition of '80s rock. Gazzoli debuted with the acclaimed album "Night Hunter," which was highly praised by critics and audiences alike thanks to its powerful sound, cutting riffs, and decidedly refined production, in line with the best of American and Northern European AOR / pomp rock / hard rock.
