Since 2012, the Roommates have been sharing the stage as musicians, but we are much more than just a band. Over the years, we have become a true family, bringing our emotionally charged alternative rock across Italy with passion and energy.
Our mission is to fully engage the audience, both those who have followed us for a long time and those discovering us for the first time.
November 2024 marks the release of our third studio album, "Outside" produced by Pietro Foresti (multi-platinum, having worked with members of Guns‘n’Roses, Korn, Asian Dub Foundation, Unwritten Law), published by Vrec Music Label and mastered by Rich Veltrop (System of a Down, Rage Against The Machine, Tool).
This album features several special guests: Diego DD Cavallotti (Lacuna Coil), Nick Oliveri (Mondo Generator, ex Kyuss, ex Queens of The Stone Age), Alfredo D'Ecclesiis (La Terza Classe).
The year 2022 was very important for us for live performances. We had the opportunity to perform on some significant stages, such as the Pistoia Blues Festival (alongside the great Gov’t Mule of Warren Haynes) and the Shock Metal Fest, opening for Phil Campbell (ex Motorhead).
Between 2022 and 2023 we shared the stage with national and international artists like Mondo Generator by Nick Oliveri (with whom the idea to collaborate on the third album was born), Pino Scotto, and Maurizio Solieri (former guitarist of Vasco Rossi), The Last Internationale, Wildstreet and Taipei Houston.
In 2021, our live album "Live Arena Festival" was released, recorded during a great concert held in the summer of 2019 at the Arena di Bigauda, in the far western Liguria.
Our collaboration with Pietro Foresti and Vrec Music Label began in 2020, with the release of "Roots", our second studio album. It is a concept album inspired by the Divine Comedy, a true "painful" journey through the seven deadly sins where rock lives and takes shape, leading to the salvation of the soul.
During the challenging period of 2020, we focused our energies on producing online content, creating the project "Playthrough and Storytelling" where we detail the tracks of "Roots" both lyrically and instrumentally.
In 2019, we launched the "Room120" project, publishing completely reinterpreted covers in our style on our YouTube channel, in precisely 120 seconds. To date, the project counts over 100 videos made.
In 2017, we released our debut album, "Fake" (via Nadir Music and distributed by Audioglobe/Believe), and in April of the same year, the legendary American band Lynyrd Skynyrd recommended our songs on their Facebook page.
