Moustache Prawn are a young alternative rock power trio, hailing from Italy’s hot south-east, Puglia. The band wins Italia Wave Puglia 2011 and then Rockit indicates the band among Revelations of the year and includes the song “Crucus” in “The best songs of the year”.
In 2012 the label PBP releases their first album “Biscuits”, containing also the single “Never think so long”, whose video-clip gained immediately national awareness, including a preview on Rolling Stone’s homepage.
They have played at several Music Festivals across Europe like the Reeperbahn Festival 2012 in Hamburg, Medimex 2012 in Bari, Puglia Sounds in London 2013, Liverpool Sound City 2014 and Sziget Festival 2015 in Budapest.
In addition, the band has been considered in 2014 as Revelation Band by MArteLive, one of the Italian biggest multidisciplinary festival. On February 2015 PBP released their second album "Erebus", coproduced by MArteLabel and supported by a successful crowdfunding campaign.
It is a Concept Album based on a short story of nature and fantasy written by the songwriter and contains an illustrated tale book.
The album has immediately a wonderful positive impact from the fan base and great reviews by press and media.
On March 2015 the band is indicated as Reveleation Live by the national club network KeepOn.
Thanks to a great show and to their Italian booking agency MArteLabel, they performed more than 80 gigs with this album.
The band has shared the stage with artists like Hugo Race, Bud Spencer Blues Explosion, Zen Circus, A Toys Orchestra, Is Tropical and many more. Now they are planning a European tour with the London based agency TIJ Events for April 2016.
On February 2016 they're gonna release a brand new EP with PBP and MArteLabel, promoted by Promorama.‘EREBUS’ PRESS QUOTES
