Dutch lutenist and guitarist Jozef Van Wissem and filmmaker-musician Jim Jarmusch recorded two albums, Bocca di Lupo and Mouth of the Wolf, in Bologna in July 2025. The sessions took place right after live dates in New York and Chicago and a week before a European tour (Paris, London, Ghent, Porto, and a debut show in Bologna). Thanks to Cineteca di Bologna’s Gian Luca Farinelli and Rosanna Mordini, the duo secured studio days at Fonoprint Studios on Via Bocca di Lupo, which gave both records their titles, echoing the Italian idiom “in bocca al lupo”, a wish of good luck equivalent to “break a leg”.
Bocca di Lupo opens with a new version of their own “Only Lovers Left Alive”; “Apology” is a reworking of an earlier Van Wissem piece, and the remaining tracks are new originals. Courtney Barnett sings guest duet vocals on “Never Like You Said”, whose lyrics arrived spontaneously in a single studio take as an emotional response to several deceitful people, a closing of the door on their toxic behavior. “Pour Deux Femmes” weaves in the background a casually recorded conversation between Adriana Coppi and Veronica Mayrr of Deux Femmes about the haunted auras of vintage women’s clothing. “Black Roses” is an original poem written in Bologna and recited within its own musical setting; the other tracks are instrumentals.
Mouth of the Wolf is a musically separate second LP with its own sleeve and artwork. It consists of two longer, darkly ecstatic instrumental studio tracks, “In A” and “Massa Damnata”, created with two electric guitars and derived from the duo’s live performances.
Their stated inspirations range widely: friends in Sunn O))) and Swans, Terry Riley and Morton Feldman, Hildegard von Bingen and William Lawes, Psychic Ills and Spacemen 3, Les Rallizes Dénudés and NEU!, Nadja and Glenn Branca, Ian Svenonius and Dead Skeletons, Son House and Gwenifer Raymond.
