The Bankrobber are an Italian Rock band formed in Riva del Garda in 2008. The band currently consists of brothers Giacomo Oberti (April 27, 1990, lead vocals, guitar) and Maddalena Oberti (December 7, 1996, keyboards, vocals) and their friends Andrea Villani (May 27, 1989, bass guitar, backing vocals) and Stefano Beretta (January 26, 1999, drums, backing vocals). The name The Bankrobber is derived from The Clash's song and their music is primarily influenced by the British new wave and post-punk revival of the new millennium.

After some line up changes Giacomo’s sister Maddalena joined the band and introducing a keyboard and a female voice the sound started to change and turn to their idea of music.
