The Mill is thrilled to host We Are Instrumental for a performance by Davide Panozzo & Etienne Stadwijk. This concert will culminate a three-week Rockstar Residency across multiple North-Country school districts created by WAI and sponsored by the generous support of the New York State Council of the Arts.
Davide Pannozzo is an Italian-born modern blues artist, guitarist, singer-songwriter and educator based in New York City. His music starts from the blues but doesn’t stay within its boundaries: he treats it as a living language — flexible, personal, built to speak to the present. At the center is the guitar, not as a display of skill but as a voice: melodic, spacious, conversational. Every note serves the song. The duo focuses on contemporary blues and New York soul-funk, characterized by orchestral keyboards and engaging guitar riffs.
Etienne Stadwijk is a New York-based keyboardist, arranger, and producer with Surinamese roots who has worked with Paul Simon, Maxwell, and Marcus Miller. His signature is the balance between European voicings, world colors, and an R&B-born sense of pocket.
