More information about IT WILL LAST

Simone Carnaghi is a multi-instrumentalist (bass/guitar/drums), composer/arranger, and teacher of bass, drums, guitar, and ensemble music with many years of teaching experience (since as far back as 2006).
His great passion for composition began very early and after the first several demos in the early 2000s, in 2011, his first album as a multi-instrumentalist entitled “Slender Hopes”.

This project was quite different from Simone’s current compositions for her “It Will Last” albums, however it was a great source of inspiration and the beginning of an ambitious path from a musical point of view, wanting to take care of all compositions, instrument recordings and more from the very beginning in total autonomy.

The “It Will Last” project came to life at the end of 2018 “Nightmares in Daylight” (2021) was the first CD-album “It Will Last” .

The entire album was written, played (all instruments), recorded, mixed and mastered by Simone in his private studio in Rescaldina (Mi).

“Nightmares in Daylight” is a concept album about aspects that are slowly “consuming” the world we live in. A few years later here is the new concept album “Mankind” the continuation and especially the evolution of the previous “Nightmares in daylight” especially in the music.

So many are Simone’s musical influences, starting with her beloved Iron Maiden from the 80s heyday, Savatage, Judas Priest, Stryper, Dokken, Rush and many more.

“Mankind” is about human selfishness, in all its forms, toward others and the world we live in.
This leads to sad consequences that tend to get worse and worse with each passing year.
It would take very little, even the smallest gestures could really improve so many things.
The message in his songs is strong, it is an album full of emotions, despite everything the theme of hope is still always present.

One of the novelties of this new album of his is definitely that he has dedicated himself in addition to everything else to all the lead vocals. Being a very personal album he was driven by a strong desire to sing all his lyrics totally immersing himself in his “It Will Last” project as a true “one man band.”
“Mankind” was totally composed/arranged, played, sung and produced by Simone at his private studio in Rescaldina (Mi).

At the moment, the project” It Will Last” does not plan to be taken to the stage, but…
the rest of the story is yet to be written….
