A troubled singer-songwriter troubadour seeking for eternal free drinks and breaking hearts.
A Sky walker-lookalike nerd busy in booking shows and releasing records with his punk label.
A curly young genius in A.I. programming and analog drumming.
Together, they form the most un-hype, out of time and out of style garage band, Miss Chain & the Broken Heels!
It all started back in 2007 as a solo/side project of the young singer/guitarist Astrid Dante: inspired by her recent discovery of late 70’s obscure Power-Pop gems, she recorded her own rock’n’roll songs with a drum machine and a fake band.
During one of the punk-rock shows booked by bass-player Franz Barcella, she partied so hard she broke her heels. That night thou she found a real band excited to back her up and tour the world.
Since then, two full-lenght records (the first one with their power-pop dream label, Screaming Apple), many 7” singles, and even more tours, parties, food discoveries, small stages, big stages, no stages, big crowds, no crowds, played with bands they had posters on their teen walls, infinite drives, injuries, broken vans, planes, many failures, great satisfactions.
But what about their music? Well, they’re one of those bands always in between.
Too pop for the punks, too punk for the pop business.
Too clean for the garage nostalgia, and too weird for the Americana community.
Hard to classify, their sound is a mixture of sixties Beatles-esque melodies, sunshine pop atmospheres, punk attitude, country, rhythm’n’blues, surrounded by dreamy landscapes, folk-revival lyricism and sometimes even bordering on psychedelia.
All the records they grow up with, or bought during their travels, are in the cocktail.
STORMS, their brand new full lenght record, is a step forward to this brave non-concept concept.
A labor of DIY, recorded by their former drummer Brown Barcella and Alessio Lonati, produced and mastered by their best friend Riccardo Zamboni and released on their own Wild Honey Records.
Let the storm begin!
