Playroom are an authentic alt/rock/power pop quartet based in London, England with influences ranging from Beethoven to Metallica and from Pink Floyd to Rush.
This band combines their vast experience and musical influences to perform memorable, bold, punchy songs with angst ridden lyrics and anthemic choruses. Their unique sound is neatly fused together
Founding members Michael (guitar/vocals) and Marc (bass) met Ru (lead vocals/keyboards) and started making music during the Covid-19 lockdown via BandMix in early 2021. Soon after, Sky joined after answering an advert also via BandMix to play the drums.
With their own permanent rehearsal/recording studio in Camden, London, Playroom are able to craft their songs at leisure, anytime 24/7. The band all contribute to the songwriting, collaboratively adding, subtracting and combining all the music, production and lyrics.
Currently the band are busy preparing for many headline UK gigs and are recording a forthcoming four track EP entitled Wet Dogs and Paper Cuts. Their debut twelve track album; Be Yourself is planned for recording and release in mid 2022.
Bruno Giacomazzi is a guitarist, singer-songwriter who started his career at the age of 12. In 2012, when he was only 16 years old, he formed his first band named "Stay Johnny". Months later, the talented group début in "Cult In Music", a famous Brazilian band competition, winning the prizes to 'Best Band' and 'Best Lead Guitarist'. The band competition was sponsored by the English school "Cultura Inglesa".
One year later, Bruno Giacomazzi and his band performed in "Cultura Inglesa Festival", sharing the stage with British artists such as Kate Nash, The Magic Numbers, and The Dark Jokes. Due to their successful performance, the band was later the opening act for one of the most famous bands in Brazil called "Capital Inicial". The gig took place at HSBC Brasil venue in São Paulo and had an audience of 3,000 people.
Years later, the band was dissolved and Bruno decided to start his solo career, moving to London in 2017. Following his blues/rock style, he performed at the famous "Cavern Club" in Liverpool, at "Ain't Nothin' But Blues Bar”, "Hope & Anchor", Camden Assembly, and others. Bruno has already released 3 video clips on YouTube for two of his original songs and one cover, reaching more than 130K views in total. Bruno has also released a 5-track EP called "Black Hat”. It is available on all digital platforms and as physical copies. Bruno is graduated in BA Popular Music (first-class honours) by Middlesex University.
In January 2019, he started a new project called: Bruno Giacomazzi & The Foreigners. In this year, Bruno and the band performed at Hanwell Hootie Festival, and London Chinese New Year. After the concert, they were interviewed by London Live Channel. The interview was broadcasted one week later. Before Covid 19, the band performed in Norway. They performed in Lillestrom, Oslo and Notodden cities. In Notodden, the band was invited to perform at Notodden Blues Festival. Notodden Blues Festival is the largest blues festival in Europe, and it is widely known as "Europe's best blues experience”. At the moment, Bruno has been working on his brand new EP and a single, which will be released soon on all digital platforms.
The Bronsons are a London-based high-energy garage rock band, inspired by the likes of Dr Feelgood, Eddie & the Hot Rods, The Count Bishops, Lew Lewis and others of that genre. The band had a cult London following in the 1980s, playing Le Beat Route, TheEmbassy Club and the legendary squatters' nightclub in Bonnington Square. After splitting in 1985, we reformed in 2013 and since then have been active on the London circuit and at a number of festivals in the UK including the Ealing Blues Festival and Music at the Crossroads.Regular gigs in the London pub circuit have included the Dublin Castle, Fighting Cocks, Fiddlers Elbow, Half Moon, Hope and Anchor, Nambucca, Amersham Arms, the Ealing Red Rooms amongst others. Sadly, due to domestic circumstances of some band members, we had to put things on hold for a few years but now, emerging from a couple of years in the Covid wilderness, we are ready to gig again with a whole new set.
