The Beatersband - Then He Kissed Me

 

  The Beatersband are a new 3 piece from Livorno, Italy who punk up classic 50's and 60's American rock n roll songs. Basically they breathe new life into old favourites whilst retaining the original soul. The line up of the band is Donatella Guide (vocals/guitar), Francesco Dell'Antico (drums) and Leonardo Serrini (bass). Leonardo has already featured on here back in 2015 with his band Bom Pro' (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2015/01/bom-pro-tromba-daria.html).

  They've just released debut album Vol Uno, it's 8 tracks you'll probably know dusted down and reinterpreted for both fans of the originals and for a younger generation who might not remember those originals. Fans of The Ramones are well served with covers of Baby I Love You, Do You Wanna Dance and Surfin' Bird whilst other treats include Charlie Blackwell's The Girl Of My Best Friend (made famous by Elvis), Richie Valens' C'mon Let's Go and Paul Anka's Diana.
