Brave Hearts Factory

The band borns in the summer of 2023 from an idea by Massimiliano Rizzo, born in 69. Born in Rome, he has played in various cover bands from the 80s and 90s including Lovecats (The Cure covers- role Bassist and singer) and Hype (U2 cover band- role: guitarist). He also released a solo album (Under Dark Clouds) during the pandemic.

Realizing that the Dark atmospheres have now (unfortunately) made their time, he decides to embrace his beloved Stratocaster and to give a more energetic turn to his musical direction. Not having an aggressive and rock-like voice that he has in mind for his new songs and for a new arrangement of those in his catalog, he frantically starts looking for new components for a band.

The first to show up with conviction and confidence in his means and in the prospects of the project is Paolo Delle Donne.

Already frontman of Urban Steam and equipped with a voice with an exquisitely Dickinsonian cut, however, he lends himself to the interpretation of songs not properly conceived in a metal perspective with the passion that characterizes him.

The band's rhythmic session, however, has yet to be defined. Always after a long search, the drummer Marco Ceccarelli born in 72 comes to the attention of the two. Engaged for several years in rock - pop bands both with unpublished repertoires and tribute bands. His passion for rock takes him from Milan to Paris to Rome to bring his contribution to the group's sound.

Only the bass player is missing. Rare goods, it seems, as two months after the meeting of the three guys, the fourth component still lats. Fortunately, in the end he jumps out of the cylinder, responding to an ad on Facebook, Stefano Mingo, a bassist with a strong rhythmic and melodic talent, based on an intuition and a vast experience and militancy in various cover bands.

The group is ready to go and the singles “Don't Run Away” , “Dreams always die at dawn” and “Another night without you” are the first result of their collaboration.
