"The bianca Story tells about spoilt spoilers and catchy catchers!"
At the scratch of this ensemble, there was a so far neverending enthusiasm: Just formed the group already tours their first very responsive tracks through Germany, Austria and Eastern Europe followed by festivals such as St. Gallen (CH). Supports of international acts such as The Gossip followed shortly after.
Their first single "Paper Piano" gets radio airplay from Switzerland to Slovenia and is nominated for Best Songs Of 2007 at MIDEM Cannes (F). Their videoclip of "Paper Piano" opens them doors for international video festivals and leads into a musical film "I DECAY" which definitely classifies them as a promising international young act in every aspect.
In fall 2007, The bianca Story was signed by the German label Rodeostar Records. Their Debut Album "Hi Society" was released in January 2008, which VISIONS caused to say "... it’s fun to switch between these musical elements without losing the feel of hearing originals. That’s the red string: music for a passion, never calculated, simply made and very charming!"
The genre was called New Haven, whose roots bring you back to the good old New Wave Rock’n’Roll. Their New Haven is a "must-go for broad-minded ships
in the 21th centure" as singer Elia puts it. There you will find a young group of artists who seem to play with eclectism and history in a obvious reckless way. History for them is not here to be repeated, therefore they try to learn to deal with the present as if it was our last day. As a matter of fact The bianca Story breaks common situation of nowadays pop-circus in pieces. One moment they play wireless-headphoneconcerts, hold exibitions in galleries, sample the audience to write a live-song together, just to play the next day at Europe’s biggest festivals. A guaranteed interesting evening if you are ready. There will be walls of trombones, tender melismatic voices, screams and choirs, a single guitar lick and the tough but forgiving drumbeat which will hopefully make you shiver.
Or as MTV Head Of Press, Matts Wappman puts It: "The bianca Story is extremely convincing with its individualistic style of music and their very charismatic frontman. Purely fresh and long-lasting, this music rocks and transports the listener, and it’s full of experimental facets. Its versatility and great artistic claim are very impressive!"
The bianca Story leaves tracks in these tumultuous days between Brighton, Budapest, Baltimore, Berlin and Basel and can count on a rapidly growing and abiding fanbase.
"Basically it’s about breaking all that Rock’n’Roll gossip back to its most truthful moments, something that makes it worth to remember the NOW! I hope we can
keep confusing things there as ’The bianca Story’ singer Anna says. After their promising Debut ’Hi Society’ The bianca Story will inevitably make themselves heard throughout the scene. Soon with music, movie or further stranger things. Among these for sure the well known and unforgettable live concerts.

Habe heute "Hi Society!" bei iTunes gekauft & festgestellt, dass es sich um einen LP Rip mit deutlich hörbaren Kratzern handelt. Is vermutlich nicht in Eurem Sinne..?
liebe Biancas, euer konzert gestern abend hat mir sehr gut gefallen! eure songs klingen live erheblich knackiger als auf der cd. den letzte song hättet ihr aber ruhig weglassen können... trotzdem: macht weiter so und geniesst es! Gxxx
Niet fühlt sich wie mit seinem ersten Verstärker, Song, Bass: beschämt'n'stolz. Rock'n'Roll. Very heavy, very humble... Wer den Zweiklang nicht kennt, der entsteht, wenn Größenwahn und Komplexe aufeinander treffen, wenn wahres Talent und echtes Unvermögen sich aneinander reiben, kennt Rock'n'Roll nicht.
hallo ihr lieben, ich hoffe euch gehts allen gut und ihr habt ein wenig zeit die sonne zu genießen. viel spaß noch bei den weiteren shows und hoffentlich bis ganz bald. die madlen
