Frequently
Asked Questions about Cibo Matto
|
Did
Cibo Matto break up?
Nobody
would rather sugar coat this more than me, but the word from the
band is that Cibo Matto
had a break up. A friendly departure into each of their own solo
projects. Each person had their own ideas to work out and keeping
the whole Cibo Matto band thing together wasn't fair to themselves
or us fans. So now they will each focus on their own solo projects,
and the people, and the musician
will stay connected as the extended family, that has grown out
of the band Cibo Matto. And we'll see the musicians of Cibo Matto
crossing paths and helping each other out on various projects.
