Attivi dal 1993, i Link Quartet sono tra i pochissimi gruppi italiani a poter vantare due tour
americani coast to coast. In questi anni hanno calcato palchi prestigiosi come il “Bourges
Festival” in Francia, dove si sono esibiti con Melissa Auf Der Maur e Calexico, e l’“Euro Ye
Ye” in Spagna. Hanno aperto per gruppi del calibro di Manu Chao, James Taylor Quartet e
Brian Auger, girando in lungo e in largo mezza Europa. Sono di casa a Londra dove oltre
ad essere coccolati dalla Acid Jazz Records che li ha voluti per la sua ultima compilation
Hammond Street, fanno apparizione fissa su radio BBC1 e BBC2 nei seguitissimi show di
Craig Charles e Mark Radcliffe e per restare dalle nostre parti sono superprogrammati a
Dispenser di RadioRai 2.
