Release Notes:
Costanza Francavilla formed the ROCK BAND "ETNIA"
in 1995, where she was SINGER SONGWRITER and GUITAR
player...Sonic Youth and post-rock sounds meet Pink
Floyd atmospheres...
After many shows in Italy, a stint in LONDON, and
the auto-production of a 4 track cd ("Subway
Scenes"), the band split in 1998...
Costanza moved to London... building up her solo
project.
She then started to auto-produce her songs with a
for 4 track tape-recorder and a DRUM-MACHINE...the
influence of London "pre-millennium" ELECTRONICA
scene begins ...
"minimal lo-fi drum-machine tunes... first approach
to synthesizers... rough electric guitars... just
few chords ... noises and voices... sensual and
blurred... she whispers ....and screams loud..."
On the 17th of December 2001, TRICKY- trip-hop guru
and "Bristol Sound" maverick and member of MASSIVE
ATTACK , one of Costanza's favorite artists ever,
came to play in Rome.
Costanza managed to give Tricky's drummer (Perry
Melius) a demo cd (with 3 songs written, performed
and produced by her).
The day after Tricky called her asking to work with
her: the collaboration started.
In Spring 2002 she moved to L.A. to begin recording
Tricky's new album VULNERABLE (released in June
2002)... singing on every songs and co-writing 2 of
them (STAY and WHAT IS WRONG)... In fall 2002 a
limited 2 Cd's-edition of Tricky's BLOWBACK album
