Atlantis1001 I Photo I Press I Mp3 I News I Colossus

Atlantis1001 Atlantis1001 got together during the summer of '95, when renzo pedron (drummers with u.f.o.piemontesi, baccini, layout and svengali) and marco tomasini, grown tired of playing the same old covers that every rock band seems to be confined to, decide to dump the whole set-list and head out to a far more ambitious project: a rush tribute band. The canadian trio has always been a strong inspiration to both musicians and no one in italy has ever tried to put together more than a couple song to perform live, especially because the required musicianship is not easily found in the non-pro band circuit. After a few rehearsals, Luca Scansani -an old friend of marco- gets the bass-player slot. after years of cranking out dancing tunes, he's just plain delighted to get the juices flowing and start playing some seriously challenging bass-lines. A long list of songs gets rehearsed, but a key element is still missing from the line-up: a singer able to reproduce geddy lee's high-pitched vocals. the search is a long and tedious one, until when -right out of the left field- alberto "bad" morosini blows the mike away with his powerful voice. The band starts gigging pretty heavily all around italy but, in the end of 1999, alberto decides to quit the band and his place is taken by alex ferrario, who also sings in a funky/fusion band.
