VENTURA is a three piece from Lausanne (Switzerland) founded in summer of 2002 when current and past members from such fine acts as Illford, Shovel and Iscariote got together with the firm intention to pay tribute to their first musical love:indie rock.....this was an added flavour of some bad ass riffing as a bonus. After some gigs, serious things started for them when swiss video artist Emmanuelle Antille offered them to use some of their music to her new film "Rollow". That gave them the opportunity to go in the studio to record some tunes and the film has since been shown at the International Film Festival in Locarno. Ventura has shared stage with fine acts such as The pAper chAse, Mediactions, Cat On Form, Division of Laura Lee, Scumbucket and Thee More Shallows. In 2005, the band released two 10'' splits vinyl in a row on Get a Life! Records. The first split was shared with the mighty swiss band Disco Doom and the second with the brutal Cortez. In 2006, Ventura finally released its first full length Pa Capona.
