NAPSTAMIND is a trio from Rome that combines the psychedelic sounds of the 1970s with the attitude of modern rock.
The band tells its vision of the human condition through the voices of all band members who take turns during the show. Musically, the band offers a performance characterized by a continuous variation of intensity and emotions, moving from introspective and spatial moments to fuzzy/hi-gain sounds and lively rhythms.t presently Napstamind are heavily engaged on the stages of the Capitoline scene, and are devoting themselves to the production of their first record release, “In the Steam Garden.”

″I write songs to exorcise feelings‶. This is how Bambina, class of 2001, defines her music.
Child is sweetness and depth, but also strength and resourcefulness. Bambina is a continuous journey within oneself, but it is mostly expressing with songs what one cannot say in words.
His music is for those who need to stop and reflect; his live performances represent an inner catharsis, aiming to move listeners and leave a mark on their souls.
With pop sounds, often combined with jazzy vibes, Bambina transforms the world around her into art and, accompanied by her guitar, carries on her musical journey.

Claudio Clementi is a Roman composer and musician. Debuts with first single “Apnea” in 2020. He thus began to be noticed and to make his solo project known, after having played in various pop/rock groups, embracing more folk and acoustic sounds.
Between 2021 and 2022, he released two more singles as a total independent, “Supernova” and “Sopravvivere,” which begin to have a more indie/rock feel, leading him to a sound increasingly rich in synths and electric guitars.In 2023, for Urban49/Saint Louis Music Production, he released the tracks “Equilibristi” and “Destinazione” confirming the sound undertaken previously and all the influences received from the Italian and international music scene, always maintaining autobiographical and introspective lyrics. In 2024 also for Urban 49 he released “Non È Oggi” and “Ferro liquido,” the latter accompanied by the official video clip shot in collaboration with the RUFA University of Fine Arts in Rome.

My passion for music began at age 10, first with guitar and then with singing, but my true musical expression emerged and materialized when I started writing lyrics of my own. That’s where I really started to believe.
My first project is taking shape, I will share with the public what I am in a sincere way, without conjecture, so that someone may perhaps recognize themselves in my words.
Soon there will be the release of two singles with the Saint Louis Music Production label (Urban 49 series), under the production and artistic direction of Dario Giacovelli, a new starting point to reveal who I am as an artist.

Akhila (aka Alessia Pandit), is a young singer and songwriter from Reggio Emilia. Over the years, she has devoted herself to the in-depth study of musical styles ranging from Soul to Sufi chanting.
Writing represents for her the ultimate place for experimentation, where her vocality is combined with ethereal lyrics, fully reflecting her background. She has performed in several cities, including Los Angeles, Mumbai to Roman jazz clubs.
In 2022 she won the Saint Louis “Game of Chords” contest, was a guest on La Repubblica’s “Webnotte” program, and in 2024 released her first singles “abstract ideal” and “to catch me.”

Bohris is a singer-songwriter born in 1998. He has always had an aptitude for music, which led to his early experiences at an early age.
Over the years, the desire to express himself with his own songs has grown. The nighttime atmosphere takes center stage in his songs; in fact, it is his favorite time of day to write. The night makes one reflect and in the silence thoughts become sharper and Bohris tries to translate them into music.
In Pop/Electronic he finds his main artistic expression, but he also likes to experiment with different genres (EDM, Rock, etc.). His music is a journey between the chaos of daily life and the tranquility of nightlife with a few stops in the lightheartedness of entertainment.
