MARDI GRAS - Sandcastle

This band from Rome has been active in the recording industry since 2006, and since then their sound has
evolved from an acoustic duo to a six-piece rock band with multiple influences.
Their fourth album "Sandcastle", already available on digital platforms, was voted album of the year by Onda
Rock readers and received praise from the public and critics, who underlined how the band has embedded
elements of symphonic rock and hard rock suggestions into its sound playground, embellished by the beautiful
voice of Liina Ratsep. "Sandcastle" is a concept album that tells a story set in New Jersey in the 80s with two
brothers as protagonists and their vicissitudes between acts of bullying, pathological narcissists and acts of
revenge and metamorphosis as represented by the purple heart that stands out on the cover.
