Biography
The Rodriguez are an Italian garage rock/post-punk band based between Venice, Milan and Paris.
It is formed by Nick (vocals), Alex (guitar/vocals), Fey (guitar), Fie (drums) and Luke (bass). The three initial members Nick, Luke and Fie have been long-time friends when they decide to start the band in 2012, from the ashes of a previous project. After his comeback from London in 2013, they ask another long-time friend Alex (who has previously played in Junkie Business and several other garage, rock ‘n’ roll and punk bands) to join the band, and some months after the line-up is complete with the addition of Fey on guitar.
The Rodriguez started their musical path taking influences by different genres of the rock n roll panorama: from The Rolling Stones to Television, from The Velvet Underground to New York Dolls, from Johnny Thunders to The Libertines, from The Jesus and Mary Chain to The Stone Roses and The Brian Jonestown Massacre. This incredible mix of varying styles gives the possibility to The Rodriguez to bring to the scene their very particular sound.
The lyrics are the manifesto of the real life experiences of each one of the members, and are composed thanks to their adventures spent throughout Venice, Paris, Milan and London, where they used to live or are living.
After having shared the stage with several major acts, including Franz Ferdinand, Sparks and Interpol and having played in the most trendy and cool clubs in Italy and Europe, The Rodriguez are ready to publish their debut album “Honk Kong Casino” which is coming out in late 2016 and will storm you with a thunderous cyclone of rock n roll explosion.
