Spaghetti Eastern Trio is the genre-leaping project of Hudson Valley-based guitarist/keyboardist Sal Cataldi. Spaghetti Eastern Music marries funky, acid jazz-fueled guitar instrumentals and ambient soundscapes with bare-bones acoustic ballads straight out of the Nick Drake school. With Tomaso Semioli on bass and additional compositions and Dirk Drazen on drums.Cataldi debuted the project with the critically acclaimed 2016 album “Sketches of Spam,” which has been followed by a number of EPs and singles. The New York Times says Cataldi “has a beat unmistakably his own” while Time Out New York praises his "delicate guitar work and the hauntingly moody atmosphere he conjures.” Called “beautiful and unique” by WFUV’s Mixed Bag and “charmingly melodic and off-center” by WFMU. Hudson Valley One has called Spaghetti Eastern “part Sergio Leone fever dream, part Ravi Shankar raga, a whirling dervish of musical creation… a must-see.” Chronogram Magazine called his music “cool, melodic, inspired and transcendent, a wave of sonic warmth and light.” Psychedelic Baby Magazine calls it “the perfect sonic tonic for these trouble times.”
Cataldi is also a member of the ambient guitar duo Guitars A Go Go, the poetry/music project Vapor Vespers and the psych/surf quartet, Spaceheater. He is also a contributing writer on music and culture to The New York Times, Huffington Post, InsideOut Upstate NY and other outlets.
