The Spins' new CD will be produced by Thomas Lang.
“If The Rock is the undisputed champion of wrestling, Thomas Lang is the king of clinic” (Modern Drummer).These two lines appeared in the last September issue of Modern Drummer are enough to define who Thomas Lang is.The author of Creative Control - possibly one of the most meticolous instructional videos ever - who performed with superstars like Robbie Williams, Ozzy Osbourne and Asia (just to name a few) agreed to produce The Spins new CD.The recording sessions will begin next January.It’s obvious that from the meeting of “the drummer who went where no drummer has gone before” and “the queen of double pedal” you can expect only the unexpected!

The Spins' UK tour is ended.
Judging
from the people who attended  our gigs we can say that our first UK tour went well. Many faults in Native Recordings promotion (thus we ceased to work with them) caused some avoidable trouble, but the expert work of our tour manager James Jackman of TM Music Publishing suceeded in mending nearly everything. In any case, as we've been contacted by one of the rising stars of the UK music industry and most probably we'll be touring UK again next summer, we can say that this tour led us to very promising developments.

And then we were three...
Frequently
you cannot judge the interior of a house from its facade. Said in a less obvious manner, to make 4.000 kilometers in a van crowded by 5 persons, their luggage and music instruments is a very good way to know the interior of anyone. So, as it's clear that a rock band is a delicate chemistry and two of us proved not to be apt (for many reasons that it's not relevant to discuss) to accept The Spins project as Alessia and I intended to be when we created it, only three of us will keep up the work from now on. Having to concentrate on new recordings, we'll choose carefully for session men and women to play what we can't do ourselves, but probably it's not so near the moment in which we'll offer to anyone else to join The Spins. Technical skill is a relevant quality to play with us, but actually not the principal.    Marcello.
