Violet Blend are an Italian alternative metal band, featuring extraordinary vocals, rich sonic power, and unbridled energy.
Founded in 2014 in Florence, Italy, the band is made up by Giada Celeste Chelli (vocals and piano), Michel Agostini (drums), and Ferruccio Baroni (bass).
Known for culture and fine art, many believe this city was the birthplace of The Renaissance, and while famously populated, its musical community is ironically lean and tight-knit. Therefore, it is not surprising that these talented musicians knew each other long before the release of their debut album White Mask, which received high praise from audiences and critics, both locally and abroad.
In terms of touring, Violet Blend has performed all over Europe, both headlining and supporting many renowned bands such as Radiohead, Garbage, Palaye Royale, Chris Slade (AC/DC), Vinnie Moore (Alice Cooper), Starcrawler, Eva Poles (Prozac+) Finley, Rezophonic (Mario Riso, Cristina Scabbia), and the British band Antimatter.
Moreover, the band has won several awards, including Band of the Year 2023 from Great Music Stories, Band Revelation of 2019 from the F.I.P.I. – International Intellectual Property Federation, #togetherforthemusic 2020 of Elio e le Storie Tese, Trio Medusa, Cesvi and Radio Deejay, and the Et Music Prize at Sanremo Rock 2019.
It's a pleasure to be able to host a night for them as they venture to Scotland to take part in this years WildFire as well as tour the UK. A very rare chance to catch an excellent band like this right on your doorstep.
