Altre di B
Andrea is an agronomist and hosts the famed radio shows 'A podcast on tennis' and 'Buona!', Giacomo makes wine, Giovanni is a social educator and Luca is a journalist. When together they are Altre di B.
For a band that burst onto the music scene with a home-burned CD containing Panini stickers of Serie B football teams (from which the band's name derives), followed in quick succession by their debut album ‘There's a million better bands’ (2011), you wouldn't think that the Italian name Altre di B corresponds to an energetic indie rock, contaminated by post-punk, jangle and twee pop, sung in English. And instead for Altre di B, formed as a band in high school, the international vision has always been an artistic prerogative. Thus, combining energy and a strong euphoric dimension; the result is a nervous, surprising and jubilant rock, which has taken the group around Italy, Europe and North America, participating in international festivals such as Primavera Sound, SXSW, Sziget Festival, Mondo NYC, Indie Week Toronto, Ypsigrock, Europavox, LUCFest Taiwan and Iceland Airwaves.
