When: October 18 2025 - Where: Miami Beach Bandshell - 7275 Collins Ave, Miami Beach
The spotlight turns to the “Italo Soundtracks Edition” on Saturday, October 18, at the Miami Beach Bandshell (7275 Collins Avenue), for the 2025 edition of Hit Week, the international festival that since 2009 has promoted Italian pop, rock, and singer-songwriter music around the world. This year’s edition places special emphasis on the dialogue between music and cinema, reinforcing the festival’s role as a platform for showcasing the many expressions of Italian creativity.
Headlining the evening are Calibro 35, a cult Italian band internationally acclaimed for their unmistakable style blending funk, rock, and classic Italian crime movie soundtracks. Dubbed by critics as “the Italian answer to American crime funk”, Calibro 35 have collaborated with global stars — including Dr. Dre and Jay-Z, who sampled their tracks — and bring to international stages a repertoire that reinterprets in a contemporary key the great masters of film music such as Ennio Morricone, Piero Piccioni, and Piero Umiliani.
