Long White Clouds

Siamo un gruppo di Bergamo con matrice internazionale: frontman neozelandese, batterista americano e 2/4 di Torre Boldone e Almè :) La nostra musica è orecchiabile e melodica, con sonorità indie rock. Born from serendipitous chance encounters and shared passions, Long White Clouds emerged onto the indie rock scene in 2009. The band's name, inspired by the Māori name for New Zealand, Aotearoa, meaning “The land of the Long White Cloud," The four-piece band is composed of Andy Burch, the lead vocalist and guitarist hailing from Napier (New Zealand), Nicola Lazzaroni and Matteo Pansa, childhood friends from Bergamo (Italy), on guitar and bass/backing vocals respectively, and Mike Ehlert on drums, who joined the ranks from Minnesota (USA) in 2022, bringing a fresh dynamic to the band's rhythm section. Their music, characterised by heartfelt lyrics, compelling melodies, and robust rhythms, embodies the spirit of indie rock while also infusing it with their unique perspectives and experiences.  The LP "Aeroplanes", recorded over two sessions in 2023 with producers Riccardo Zamboni and Federico Laini was released in October 2024 under the label Edonè Dischi.
