SEE EVENT DETAILSElettrodomestico
Elettrodomestico is a 2 piece band made up of songwriters Jane Wiedlin and Pietro Straccia. Jane Wiedlin is best known as guitarist/songwriter and founder of the all-female band and american sweathearts: The Go-Go's.
Pietro Straccia is an Oakland based multi-instrumentalist/songwriter who grew up in Detroit and Italy (epiqe, is4i, apside).
Formed in 2016, after an explosive long distance writing collaboration following the death of David Bowie, the duo independently released their first album, IF YOU’RE A BOY OR A GIRL, on October 20 2017.
While many of the lyrics explore alienation and despair, their sound is markedly upbeat, with layered guitars, intricate harmonies, and four-to-the-floor pop drumbeats. Their guitar driven "candy-grunge" elettro/psychedelic/pop sound has been compared to bands Metric, The (evil) Mamas & The Papas, Abba, Garbage, The Flaming Lips, The XX, Phantogram.
For their live performances, Elettrodomestico team up with Dawn Richardson (4 Non Blondes, Tracy Chapman..) on drums and Joe Gore (Tom Waits, PJ Harvey...) on bass.
