Immediately after the first recordings the project is clear: to interpret the repertoire of Italian soundtracks trying to make her own but at the same time remaining faithful and respectful to the work of the great masters.

The 2010 has started touring with a return of the group on the road for dates in Holland (including the International Festival Eurosonic) and Luxembourg.

"Return to ...", the second disc Calibro35 released across Europe on Ghost Records in February 2010 received unanimous positive reviews and generating considerable interest across the Italian and foreign press, and specialized (Mojo, Rolling Stones, XL, Espresso…). Sempre a Febbraio parte un lungo tour Italiano con piu’ di 80 concerti durante i dieci mesi successivi.
