Piva

Piva is an Italian folk ensemble rooted in the traditions of Emilia-Romagna, blending rustic charm with lively, storytelling-driven music. Known for reviving regional dialects and historical narratives, their sound centers on the piva (a local bagpipe) alongside accordions, guitars, and poetic vocals that evoke the landscapes and legends of their homeland. Recent releases like *Ma chî gh'è ar mâ (L'album dell'alluvione)*—a flood-themed album reflecting community resilience—and *Piva canta le Cinque Terre* highlight their knack for weaving place-specific tales, while live recordings like *Scoggi (Live)* capture their rollicking, communal concert energy. With a casual, tavern-ready vibe, Piva keeps Emilia’s folk traditions stomping into the modern era.
