about
GRAN TURISMO VELOCE formed in 2008 in Grosseto, Tuscany. The band's name is a direct homage to the famous Italian sportscar whose popularity spread throughout Europe in the 1970s, and the fact that in those years Italian progressive rock was doing the same. The band takes their influence from those 1970s prog bands and blends it with modern electronic, jazzy rock, and even some metal mood. The released their first EP In un solo brivido and were playing their songs across Italy. Over the next couple of years the band won awards at music competitions and wowed audiences at Alternativersion, the XIV Festival in Savona, Emergenza contest, and Musicamp near Milan. While working on their first full length album Di Carne, di Anima they caught the attention of Samuele Santanna, frontman of RAVEN SAD. Soon the band was working with Loris Furlan of Lizard Records and their debut was released in the Spring of 2011. An infectious and exciting pollination of classic RPI and modern attitudes, GRAN TURISMO VELOCE is poised to make a huge splash with a wide variety of progressive rock tastes.
