The 411: 

CATALANO is a five-headed riff monster operating across state lines, delivering a typhoon of vintage hard rock vibes to an Australian scene currently in drought. Fronted by charismatic frontman Roxx Catalano of De La Cruz fame, the mini metal supergroup also features other members of prominent Aus & New Zealand acts including De La Cruz, Sinate, Kill Shott and Darcee Fox. After touring Sweden earlier this year supporting Norwegian sleaze rockers The Cruel Intentions, Catalano have capped off 2019 by unleashing the first lick of their forthcoming debut album, a single dubbed ‘Wildest Dreams’. Recorded and mixed by Bad Moon Born’s Voya Milutinovic at Melbourne’s Cosmo Studio and mastered in Finland by Mika Jussila, the track also comes packing a gritty music video directed by Dan Ramsay (watch above).

Live Dates: 

TBA

Our Review: 

Catalano set their guitars to stun on this anthemic 80’s crusher pumping with big mean hooks, black leather attitude and ripped jean steez.
