Nureci Blues
Written within the quiet walls of Nureci, a fairytale village in Sardinia with only 200 inhabitants, Nureci Blues captures a life-changing chapter for Bob Forte. But while the inspiration was born in silence, the sound was forged on stage.
Together with bassist Tancredi Emmi and drummer Pietro Frongia, Forte refined these tracks through countless live performances until they developed an unshakeable identity. The result is a powerful collection of eight original compositions and one blues standard. Expertly mixed by Fivos Lapadopoulos, the album is raw, soulful, and undeniably gritty, Nureci Blues showcases the dynamic energy of a trio that has truly found its sound. Executive Producer: Angelo Serra
Quarter To Midnight
With Quarter To Midnight, Bob Forte takes a bold and determined leap into the world of jazz. Stepping outside his blues roots, Forte surrounded himself with his favorite Scandinavian masters to create a sophisticated exploration where two genres intersect.
Guided by his guitar mentor Erik Weissglas and the elite rhythm section of Hans Backenroth (double bass) and Joakim Ekberg (drums), Forte is immersed deep into the music, recalling the spirit of the old days. Recorded and mixed by Tomas Johannesson, the album captures the spirit of the old days where chemistry is paramount. No song required more than three takes, with several captured in a single, magic moment. Quarter To Midnight is elegant, earthy, and endlessly creative a document of a bluesman finding a new home in jazz under the wing of these masters. Executive Producer: Angelo Serra

Skydog & Bob Forte
Skydog and Bob Forte share more than just a deep passion for the blues; they share a history. From the very beginning of Forte’s career, Skydog has been a constant companion and collaborator. Their musical partnership has taken them from humble beginnings playing on street corners to the stages of international festivals like Narcao Blues and Mamas Blues in Nureci.
To capture the true essence of this bond, the album was recorded unplugged, with the musicians playing together in the room. This approach allowed them to showcase their real sound with total honesty, ensuring every drop of feeling was captured in the moment.
Recorded at Foxy Studio and mixed by Fivos Lapadopoulos, this is a curated selection of the songs that mean the most to them. Featuring the guitar work of Enrico Pedrini on select tracks and the percussion expertise of Pietro Frongia, this collection is a celebration of brotherhood, the blues, and the road traveled together.
