Apside is a San Francisco based rock band. In April 2005 a popular radio station in San Paolo, Brazil 2000 gets hold of Apside's newly recorded EP and starts playing the single "Collide" on their alternative rock weekly show. The band is unaware of the magnitude of the public's response until they get an email inviting them to Brazil to tour the country. Apside jumps on a plane and plays the San Paolo Campari Festival (which also lands them a live appearance on MTV and on several other Brazilian networks) along with punk heroes MC5, The Kills, CSS, Dungen then continues to five more cities to headline a tour of packed clubs.
Apside is an amalgamation of pop, beautiful dirty guitars and intense harmonics. The band members are insanely driven to create music that carries them beyond temporary trends. Apside begins in 2004 when Paolo and Pietro meet in San Francisco after having lived most of their lives in different countries of Europe. Their desire to write songs that are melodic, abrasive, catchy and memorable inspires them to meet other likeminded musicians whom they find in Brazilian native Bruno Romani and American drummer Tina Fagnani.
In September 2006 Apside's song "Someday" was featured on a new prime time Fox network TV show. In 2007, Apside made it twice to the top 5 bands for the Live 105 Band Contest (a competition entered by hundreds of bands). Consequently, the band has started getting airplay on Live 105, Alice Radio and other Bay Area radio stations. Since then Apside has caught the attention of super producer Sylvia Massy and after some pre-production work, the band is currently recording their first full-length album.
