Tell us about yourself, who are you and where do you come from?

Hi, we are an Italian band. We are friends with a spontaneous desire to have fun and play together, and that’s how the idea of ​​forming a musical band was born.

How was your passion for music born? Who are your idols?

Our passion for music was born when we were kids, when we listened to the myths of Rock and Heavy Metal and dreamed of becoming like them. Our idols range from Dream Theater, PFM, Area, Cosmosquad, Soft Machine, Nomadi, Negrita.

What kind of music do you do?

We mainly play melodic Rock influenced by Psychedelic sounds and Progressive experimentations. But our background varies a lot and we have also composed Pop/Rock songs.

What is the most important song for you? What message do you want to convey to the listener?

There are 2 songs that are the band’s flagship: the single “giorni da dimenticare”, a poignant pop-rock ballad that narrates the events and difficulties that we all encounter in our daily lives and “Aedos” where we present what is actually our sound and our main style.

Why should a listener who doesn’t know you listen to your music?

Because we try to propose in our small way of experimentation, our art and our way of seeing things and life. Our ideas and our musical fantasies, which are a marriage of different influences and visions.

What are your future projects? Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?

I couldn’t tell you, we always try to challenge ourselves by having fun and experimenting with music based on our emotions. The fundamental thing for us is to have fun together, then we’ll see what comes in the future.

Tell our readers a funny episode that happened in your career as an artist.

We have always had a lot of fun playing together, certainly the funniest episode was when one time while recording we didn’t realize we had the input volume at zero and after hours and hours of performing nothing was recorded.
