Blackfriars

Nine lives are droppin' off

About Me

Blackfriars are 3 Europeans who decided to make themselves Londoners in an indie rock band. Paolo (vocals, guitar, piano) left Italy in 2005 and found Welsh drummer, Paul, to join him in 2006. The need for a bass player and backing vocals led them to female bassist Marilou (also known in the Greek alternative new wave scene as ‘Cristabel Etheriel’) who joined the band in November 2006, completing the line up.
3 different backgrounds, 3 different cultures and 3 different people combine to create something greater than the individual. Melodic tunes with psychedelic reminiscences, played with a punk rock attitude; this is the sound of Blackfriars.
An unmissable live act!
The Strangest Time
I've been sad for a long time
but I don't mind
I've been greedy for love
in my soul
and I've been cruel sometimes
but you don't cry
'cause I'm joker tonight
give me smiles
On a mountain top
slowly raindrops cry
At the strangest time
Take my hand, please tonight
I would try
you can't feel me anymore in your song
so let me please taste your mouth
let me shout
'cause I'm a lover tonight
I'll leave you high
On a mountain top
slowly raindrops cry
At the strangest time
