Artist
Mimes of Wine was born as the solo project of singer and pianist Laura Loriga in 2006. The songs that are part of her first album, Apocalypse Sets In (2009), were all composed and recorded during the following three years, inspired by the cities where she lived during that period (Bologna, Italy, where she grew up, Paris, San Francisco, and Los Angeles) and by the people she collaborated with. Originally a singer for different underground bands in Bologna, Laura has unified in this project the work she has developed with her two instruments, piano and voice. The bones of all the songs are composed with these two elements, and they are enriched by other sounds, from bells to cymbalons, guitars, drums, a shruti box, noises, and more. From 2007 to 2009 Laura performed almost exclusively in California, accompanied by a viola (Neel Hammond), a stand up bass (Kenny Annis), and drums (Drew Pearson). In Italy, her sound (on records and live) was enriched by the work of drummer and producer Enzo Cimino, whom Laura co-produced her first album with, and by more musicians like Adriano Modica (guitar, bass), Tiziano Bianchi (trumpet), Francesco Begnoni (guitar), Zeus Ferrari (drums). Her band currently includes Luca Guglielmino (guitar), Riccardo Frisari (drums), poli-instrumentalist Stefano Michelotti, stand-up bass player Matteo Zucconi. After the release of the first record, Mimes of Wine performed extensively around Italy, sharing stages with Italian and foreign artists
