2 01 Out of the Blue I wrote this song while recording in the studio and decided to put in on the album. 02 Mountains Imagine the outline of the mountains, so obviously making music. 03 Marea Tide in English. The wonderful movement of the sea, always chasing itself. 04 Heartbeat You can hear a heartbeat throughout the song; it means life. 05 Mr. Rail Mr. Rail is a character in a book by Italian author Alessandro Baricco. Mr. Rail is always traveling without a destination. 06 Passengers We are all passengers. 07 Lovers Two lovers chasing each other, finally meeting at a train station. 08 Beyond the Clouds Just a dream. 09 Warm Embrace Something warm and familiar. 10 Dusk in the East I ve traveled in Eastern Europe and Japan. Seeing the dusk in the East is really fascinating. I don t know why. 11 Horizon Something we can chase, it s not so far. Dear listener, friend and music lover, If you re here it means that you just bought my new album. I would like to thank you for supporting my music. This album, Out of the Blue, has a lot of meaning for me. Out of the Blue is an informal English language idiom that describes an event that occurs unexpectedly, without any warning or preparation; It s also a perfect way to describe my music. I always try to tell all the things that happen in my life day by day along with the emotions humankind embraces. I m happy to share with you my new sounds and hope they can be a faithful companion for you. I suggest enjoying the album with big headphones while totally lost in nature. With love and a big hug, Bruno 12 Breath One of my first songs that I wanted to recompose for this album with a new sound. 13 Snow Sometimes a song sneaks up on you.

4 Bruno Bavota is a Neapolitan composer and multi-instrumentalist. His intimate and warm piano recordings express a lyrical romanticism, a familiar sound caressing and surrounding the audience. Bavota cherishes the harmonies he creates and his gentle touch forms a peculiar sound recognizable at the very first notes. His attraction to music came only at the age of twenty. Music decided to save his life, covering him with an enormous, warm hug from which the echoes of the deepest emotions of his soul are constantly exposed. A few years later he discovered the piano, whose strings naturally replaced those of his heart, spreading his love song across the world. On 22 December 2010 he published his first self-produced LP Il Pozzo d Amor. On 10 March 2013 he released his second album on Lizard entitled La Casa Sulla Luna. The album release continued with a show on 2 April at the Royal Albert Hall in London a truly unforgettable and amazing experience. While he was performing at Iceland Airwaves in November 2013, he started recording his third album The Secret of the Sea, which was released in April After the release of his last album Mediterraneo, he played all over the world (Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, UK, Iceland, Latvia, Japan) with sold-out shows in Russia and Ukraine.
