Primrose

Primrose - a cosmic-pop band from Moscow will give its first gig on December 29th at Artefaq club. They will present new tracks of the band recently known as Indies. The band has a 4-year history of successful concerts that starts from supporting Mika and OneRepublic and goes up to the biggest Moscow venues. Moreover the band frequently took part in The Red Rocks Tour - one of the largest music festival dedicated to Sochi 2014 Olympics. The frontman - Gregory - has been a hero of major editorials like GQ, Rolling Stone, The Page Mag and many others. The band has 2 EPs - Light Edition and Victory of the Indies, that were partially recorded and mixed in NYC and a pop-art video Emotional Billionaire starring top-model Masha Rudenko (Armani, Ferre, Comme des Garcons etc.) «Collaborating with the guys had been so much fun! A lot of creativity!» - says Masha. -«I just fell in love with their music from the first moment - it’s all about my style. Now I can’t wait for them to come to Los Angeles. I’ll be so happy if our country will be assosiated with such great voice and fantastic music». Changing the band’s name was a long-time plan according to Gregory: «When Indies were formed we had different band members and played something between indie-rock and alternative, but our sound had been changing with every released track, and finally got smoother and closer to electro pop. The new tracks had just nothing to be assosicated with the previous band name. Above all, at this moment we don’t try to follow the market trends.» Influenced by Sting, Elton John and Queen, the band’s frontman Gregory wants to add that type of sound and melody to his tracks. By this time Promrose had only one gig - supporting OneRepublic in November, 2014, but that was enough to start gaining a new fans and populatiry. «We never had so much feedback after Indies’ gigs. Now we get lots of messages every day, people send their pictures of us - some are a real pieces of art! We feel that everybody is waiting for new releases and this gives us forces to keep on doing what we do.» In the end of 2014 the band will present a single «Compulsion» - and official cover version of 1989 Martin Gore track, and in 2015 the guys are planning to release an album and a music video.
