Legendary Italian crooner Paolo Conte’s idiosyncratic compositions are beautifully rendered by Mocambo Jam. The Sydney-based trio of Italian musicians – Danilo Sidari, vocals, Mauro Colombis, piano, Gino Pengue, guitar – effortlessly breathe new life into the timeless classics of some of Italy's most recognised singer-songwriters amongst them Conte, Fabrizio De Andrè, Vinicio Capossela and Francesco De Gregori.

Mocambo Jam made their first public appearance in Sydney at Foundry616 in 2015 with Un Gelato al Limon!
Italian crooner and fiction writer, Danilo Sidari was born in Sanremo (The Riviera) and grew up sharing his musical interest between the progressive rock of British bands such as Caravan and Hatfield and the North as well as with the Italian singer-songwriters. In 1995 love brought him downunder, a world in which he still lives, loves, sings and writes and one that created his undoubtedly perpetual schizophrenic experience, a threesome love affair with Australia and Italy.
Mauro Colombis is a Sydney based versatile Italian pianist. Classically trained, he has performed in concerts across Europe and in Australia as well as playing for major film festivals in Italy (Le Giornate del Cinema Muto) and throughout Australia's cities. His talent creates demand for his piano accompaniment to silent films of which he regularly performs in Sydney.
Gino Pengue, professional guitarist, recognised for his talent can draw a crowd. What can't he play!
