The MASiMAS Festival 2026 presents Bass Monkeys<\/strong>, a musical collective that reinterprets the tradition of Sicilian wind bands through a contemporary and radically energetic lens. Their approach draws on the popular legacy of southern Italy and projects it into the present, combining acoustic sounds with an intense stage presence and a live performance conceived as a physical, collective experience.<\/p>\n

Bass Monkeys<\/strong> works with the imagery of traditional brass bands, transferring their rhythms, timbres, and dynamics to a modern context where repetition, electronics, and festive drive coexist. The result is a hybrid language that preserves the communal and ceremonial character of Sicilian folk music while recontextualizing it with expansive sonic force and a distinctly contemporary attitude.<\/p>\n

On the Jamboree stage, the group offers a high-intensity concert where groove, rhythmic energy, and constant musical dialogue create a continuous flow that invites movement and audience participation. More than a historical reinterpretation, Bass Monkeys<\/strong> presents a living celebration of tradition as a transforming entity, capable of connecting past and present without losing its identity.<\/p>\n

Why you shouldn\u2019t miss it<\/strong>: because it\u2019s a rare opportunity to experience a centuries-old tradition through the body and energy of live performance, in an explosive concert where Sicilian folk music is reinvented as a contemporary, contagious experience.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"bass-monkeys-masimas-festival-2026","image":{"url":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Destacada-Jamboree-40.jpg","id":128214,"extension":"jpg","width":1500,"height":1125,"filesize":133624,"sizes":{"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":576,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":89802,"url":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Destacada-Jamboree-40-768x576.jpg"}}},"all_day":true,"start_date":"2026-05-09 00:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"05","day":"09","hour":"00","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2026-05-09 23:59:59","end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"05","day":"09","hour":"23","minutes":"59","seconds":"59"},"utc_start_date":"2026-05-08 22:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"05","day":"08","hour":"22","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2026-05-09 21:59:59","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"05","day":"09","hour":"21","minutes":"59","seconds":"59"},"timezone":"Europe\/Madrid","timezone_abbr":"CEST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"\u20ac","currency_code":"EUR","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"https:\/\/tickets.oneboxtds.com\/masimasfestival\/events\/49967?hl=ca-ES","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Concert","slug":"concert","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":52,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":354,"filter":"raw","id":52,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/52","collection":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[{"name":"Traditional Sicilian brass","slug":"traditional-sicilian-brass","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":297,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":0,"filter":"raw","id":297,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags\/297","collection":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/tags"}}],"venue":{"id":121305,"author":"1","status":"publish","date":"2025-09-30 11:18:19","date_utc":"2025-09-30 09:18:19","modified":"2025-12-29 14:02:43","modified_utc":"2025-12-29 13:02:43","url":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/venue\/jamboree-sala-1\/","venue":"Room 1","slug":"jamboree-sala-1","address":"Pla\u00e7a Reial, 17","city":"Barcelona","country":"Spain","zip":"08002","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"Room 1","description":"","url":"","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"Pla\u00e7a Reial, 17","addressLocality":"Barcelona","postalCode":"08002","addressCountry":"Spain"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"global_id":"jamboreejazz.com\/en\/?id=121305","global_id_lineage":["jamboreejazz.com\/en\/?id=121305"]},"organizer":[{"id":121323,"author":"1","status":"publish","date":"2025-09-30 11:18:19","date_utc":"2025-09-30 09:18:19","modified":"2026-01-19 10:51:17","modified_utc":"2026-01-19 09:51:17","url":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/organizer\/mas-i-mas-live\/","organizer":"MasiMas Live","slug":"mas-i-mas-live","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"MasiMas Live","description":"","url":"","telephone":"","email":"","sameAs":""},"global_id":"jamboreejazz.com\/en\/?id=121323","global_id_lineage":["jamboreejazz.com\/en\/?id=121323"]}],"custom_fields":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Bass Monkeys – MASiMAS FESTIVAL 2026","description":"<p>Alberto Anguzza \u00b7 Antonio Anguzza \u00b7 Carollo Tommaso \u00b7 Marco Caterina \u00b7 Francesco Bianco\u00a0 \u00b7 Giulio Cernigliaro\u00a0 \u00b7 Samuele Scalise The MASiMAS Festival 2026 presents Bass Monkeys, a musical collective […]<\/p>\\n","image":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Destacada-Jamboree-40.jpg","url":"https:\/\/jamboreejazz.com\/en\/event\/bass-monkeys-masimas-festival-2026\/","eventAttendanceMode":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OfflineEventAttendanceMode","eventStatus":"https:\/\/schema.org\/EventScheduled","startDate":"2026-05-09T00:00:00+02:00","endDate":"2026-05-09T23:59:59+02:00","location":{"@type":"Place","name":"Room 1","description":"","url":"","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"Pla\u00e7a Reial, 17","addressLocality":"Barcelona","postalCode":"08002","addressCountry":"Spain"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"organizer":{"@type":"Person","name":"MasiMas Live","description":"","url":"","telephone":"","email":"","sameAs":""},"performer":"Organization"},"ticketed":false}
