Andromeda Relix and WANIKIYA RECORD are proud to announce the release of “2.0”, the new album by the Verona-based rock band Carillon, led by vocalist Patty Simon and guitarist Luigi De Stefano.
Carillon, an Italian rock project blending diverse styles and experimentation with a natural inclination toward the mainstream, present their new album which, starting from its title, “2.0”, represents a true artistic and emotional rebirth.
The record features eleven brand-new tracks in which the band tackles contemporary themes such as gender-based violence, lack of communication, and parenthood. The album — whose cover, designed by Kraken Promotion Studio, is unveiled here in preview — is preceded by the single “Sbagliata”, and opens up to a sound that fuses guitar-driven rock with electronic nuances. This is perfectly showcased by the double version of “Il grido e l’odio”, presented both in an electric and a spoken-word rendition, with Patty Simon’s voice layered over the guest keyboards of Klandelion.
Drawing inspiration from acts such as Timoria, Negrita, and elements of symphonic metal rock, “2.0” will be available on all major digital platforms from October 10, while the CD edition is expected to be released by the end of the month. Stay tuned!
Biography
In 2014, Carillon released their debut album “Il grande brivido” through Andromeda Relix, earning significant recognition within the Italian rock scene.
Five years later, they released “Rumore e silenzio” on digital platforms, marking a clear artistic evolution. The album, consisting of eight tracks and recorded at Le Ombre Studio in Milan under the artistic supervision of Lele Battista and promoted by Music Alive, received wide acclaim from the Italian music press.
In 2021, Carillon represented the Veneto region on the stage of the Teatro Ariston during the 34th edition of Sanremo Rock, after winning the regional selections. The following year, they returned to the Ariston for the 35th edition, presenting their new single “Il tempo all’infinito”, produced by Istintomusic and included in the physical CD release “Rumore e silenzio – Special Edition”.
Also in 2022, Carillon competed in the Vicenza Rock Contest, reaching the grand final in October where they won “Best Verona Band”, as well as two additional awards: “Radio Voice Award” and “Second Place – Best Female Vocalist” for Patty Simon.
In 2024, following the digital and YouTube release of their new single “Sbagliata”, Carillon — joined live by two session musicians on bass and drums — recorded their latest album “2.0”. This release marks the official collaboration between Andromeda Relix and Wanikiya Record, with the latter also handling the promotional campaign.
