What is the genre of music that you play?

As someone has already written "Rainbow Bridge excel at playing 60's Psych Stoner Rock and classic 70's Hard Rock with a rich tapestry of 90's based Stoner Rock extended jam"

Can you give a brief history of the band of how it came together and where it is today?

Rainbow Bridge was born in 2006 inspired by the sounds of the Jimi Hendrix Experience and heavy psychedelic blues. Right from the start we tried to give a personal touch even if they were cover songs or standards. The band has played many rock & blues festivals over the years and opened for bands like Oh Sees, Putan Club & more. 

Over time, several bassists have come and gone in the band but with the arrival of Fabio in 2015 we started producing new music. Since 2017, three self-produced albums have been released on Bandcamp - plus a live album and a cover album by our reference artists - with very positive feedback from the press and critics even outside Italy. We also discovered that we are also featured in the first volume of the "Stoner Freak Anthology" with our second album "Lama". A great satisfaction.

A couple of years ago we started thinking about our new record, we wanted to do something different, a kind of double album, like all our favorite bands did.

A first part dedicated to the songs, a second part to the instrumental pieces and finally a long "concept" piece that would have enclosed all the souls of the band.

Now finally "Drive" is reality and we are preparing to push it in the best way.


What can people expect from your music?

Energy, feeling, empathy

What is the best release that folks should check out from your band?

Our releases up to yesterday have been a bit divided between free instrumental jam tracks and some songs. In our latest record "Drive" we have combined both, so there is something for everyone.
