Brief History:
Myself (Michele), Crozzo and Glauco are friends before being musicians since the age of 14.
We played together for sometime when teenagers and then we moved on different way.
After some years we found each other again and meet up with drummer Emy.
We tried to prepare some covers for gigs in the area but everytime we reharse new material came up.
So in 2004 we decided to make a record.
We met with a local producer in Modena who liked some of the songs (Burn is the first one we wrote) and started the recording..
We moved to milan where we recorded the whole record with the sound engineers of Sananda Maitreya’s (former Terence Trent D’arby)
Wstarted promoting our band on the internet (myspace has been the 1st site).
We reached 500.000 contacts in less than 2 years without (almost) any live gigs or promotion.
One of this contact is Marco Migliari and with his great help we managed to finish the record that has been entirely mixed and masters at realworld studios.
We are now looking for a publishing and distribution deal, ‘cause we feel our job is to write songs and let professionals do their work in their field.
In the U.S. they play our songs on local radios, they insert our songs on promote cd sampler, they write reviews on our work and they would like to see us live....
From there we get most of the contacts as well.
Goals:
Our Goal for the future, now that we finished our first record, is to:
- find a proper distribution who could start promoting the record.
We feel this record is good enough (It took us 10 days to record it less than 2 weeks…)and that It can be compared with many works out there .
Most of all, we know (but without a 1st chance this point is very hard to prove) we can do better.
Chicago Bands and Entainers we are looking to fill some spots in upcoming event show. If you are looking to get in some clubs and festivals please email us.

MINNEAPOLIS – The $1.92 million verdict against a Minnesota woman accused of sharing 24 songs over the Internet could ratchet up the pressure on other defendants to settle with the recording industry if the big fine can withstand an appeal. In the latest trial, a federal jury in Minneapolis ruled that she must pay $1.92 million for willful infringement of the recording industry's copyrights by posting the music on the file-sharing site Kazaa. Under federal law, the recording companies are entitled to $750 to $30,000 per infringement but the law allows the jury to raise that to as much as $150,000 per track if it finds the infringements were willful. The jury decided on $80,000 per song.
This is so messed up.. but nothing surprises me anymore.. The lady that they are trying to get almost $2 million dollars from is a single mother of 4! So my friends in honor of the recording industry I would like to give you the gift of new music.. Feel free to DOWNLOAD the songs FOR FREE on my page... don’t worry.. I won’t sue you ;) <img .."visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="
