Thunder Rod Company

Gina suona il rock'n'roll!

About Me


The Thunder Rod Company was born in Pisa about a year ago. First members of the band were: Basetta on vocals and guitar, Pucci on bass guitar and Paci on drums.
After only one month of rehearsals they start to perform live and record their first demo. At that time, TRC's music was a sort of punk, rock'n'roll with bits of noise influences... Soon, a close friendship began with other bands from the Pisa area, thanks to live shows in which the TRC shared the stage with: 'The Criminal Jokers' , 'Toni Crimine' and 'Ceke' . During the last year, the TRC has toured 'round Tuscany, Italy and wherever it was given the chance to play.
A new era for the band, begins with the new drummer, Zillo, which joins the band in 2006. With the new member TRC's music changes a bit and becomes some mixed sort of noisy blues and 60's beat.
Planning to record their new album in Turin as soon as possible (thanks a lot to the Zen Circusfor making it possible), the TRC has already recorded a single (I Will Dawn!) to give a taste of their new sound to the public.
HOPE YOU ENJOY.
