Absolute Journey Tribute was a Journey tribute band that faithfully recreated the show of the legendary music group from San Francisco with attention to detail. ENERGY, COSTUME CHANGES, EMOTION in the executions, MUSICIANSHIP and audience INTERACTION were the staples that made an AJT show the most complete Journey tribute band experience on the market.

We performed at festivals, theaters, casinos, corporate events and cruise ships. The band has visited 18 States in the USA and 6 Provinces in Canada. Within the 8 years of activity we extended our business to Caribbean, Hong Kong, Singapore and Vietnam.

“Only the young”: the energetic Journey tribute band

AJT recreated a complete Journey concert where music, visuals and interaction were king. Riccardo Curzi, a dead ringer to Steve Perry, mesmerized the crowds with vocal prowess and emotion. He is the only Steve Perry tribute singer and impersonator who performs numerous costume changes during a show. Marko Stojanovic’s ripping solos made you appreciate Neal Schon’s guitar moxie once again. Dan Benezra brought you both Jonathan Cain‘s keyboard and rhythm guitar playing and Gregg Rolie‘s lead vocals. He’s undoubtedly the most versatile Journey tribute keyboardist out there. Andrew Scola put the utmost care in recreating the signature sounds of Ross Valory‘s bass playing. His beautiful rhythmic tapestries became the foundation of AJT’s sound, completed by the energetic drumming of Jaden Spanier. Jaden’s playing embodies both Steve Smith‘s finesse and Deen Castronovo‘s powerful execution.

Unfortunately, due to the unforseen hardships brought by the international effort in curbing the effects of Covid-19, Absolute Journey is now on permanent hiatus. Thanks so very much for 8 years of career and for the unforgettable memories we had together for all this time.

Founding members, Alessandro “Frank” Lapini and Michele Trillini were best friends since childhood. They started playing in bands together and separately since they were teenagers through their twenties. They joined forces again in 2011 to form FLEMT.

This reunion came at the very right time since, after months of hard work, FLEMT was offered to compete for the chance to open for 80s legends Bon Jovi in concert. FLEMT won the contest and performed as opening act for Bon Jovi at the Friuli Stadium of the city of Udine in front of 40,000 people.

The demo tape that was sent to the contest was praised so much that FLEMT took those 13 original songs and re-recorded them for their debut album “The Time Has Come”.

Archelao Macrilló, drummer for FLEMT, attended the University of Boston. Archelao’s career highlights include performing with Marco Mendoza (Whitesnake), Ignite Violet, Julien Funk, Thomas Mester and Ramzi Khoury.

In 2016, Gina Helms Whitt & her North American management company, Southern Girl Promotions, became FLEMT management. With representation in place, FLEMT began to expand their musical horizons. They aimed to perform their original rock music internationally, with a particular focus on the United States & Canada. This was a favorable decision as their music has been met with a tremendous response. They now have a large North American fan base.

In 2019 FLEMT signed a record deal with White Lion Audio. The Orchard, a subsidiary of Sony Music, became their distribution company. They released their single and videoclip for Dream Girl on September 13, 2019.

In March 2021, FLEMT published a new single, Don’t Stop Me, under their label White Lion Audio. This time Ingrooves (a subsidiary of Universal Music Group) provided the distribution.

FLEMT toured Europe with Rowan Robertson, previously guitarist for Dio.

In 2023 Riccardo Curzi joined as the new lead singer for the band. Riccardo has a strong background as a musician, promoter and band manager. He resided in Canada for 12 years and extensively toured the United States in the 2010s as vocalist for a very successful tribute band to American arena rock giants, Journey. In 2017 his band performed in Quebec as opening act for 70s rock legends Styx, in front of 15000 people.

What is the meaning of “FLEMT”? There has been lots of speculation around the answer, but one thing is for sure:
FLEMT is: Riccardo Curzi on lead vocals, Michele Trillini on guitar and backup vocals, Alessandro Lapini on bass and Archelao Marcrilló on drums.
