About the artist

THE BAND KICKED OFF IN AUGUST 2003 THANKS TO ALEX “THESHAZTA” VECCHIETTI, SINGER, GUITARIST AND PRODUCER IN THE SICILIAN UNDERGROUND SCENE. INFLUENCES GO FROM CLASSIC HARD ROCK (BLACK SABBATH/AC-DC),TO 90’S GRUNGE AND ALTERNATIVE ROCK (ALICE IN CHAINS/SMASHING PUMPKINS), TO NEW SCHOOL BANDS SUCH AS NICKELBACK, IGNITE, A PERFECT CIRCLE. THE RESULT IS A FRESH AND POWERFUL “IN YOUR FACE” STYLE HARD ROCK AND A COMBO THAT CAN SHOW ITS DETERMINATION AND ORIGINALITY IN ANY LIVE SITUATION, MAY IT BE “UNPLUGGED” OR AT AN OPEN AIR FESTIVAL IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS PEOPLE. ALONGSIDE VARIOUS PROJECTS IN WHICH ALEX WAS INVOLVED (INCLUDING THE BAND REFLECTIONS, WITH WHOM HE RELEASED 2 ALBUMS IN 2006 AND 2011 AND PLAYED WITH BANDS SUCH AS AGNOSTIC FRONT,NOFX,D.O.A. AND MARKY RAMONE) THE BAND WAS PROMOTED IN ITALY SUPPORTING ARTISTS SUCH AS MEGANOIDI IN 2005, UK SUBS,ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION IN 2007 AND ZERO ASSOLUTO IN 2009. THESHAZTA HIT EVEN LONDON, WHERE THEY PERFORMED IN 2003 AND 2005 IN A VARIETY OF CLUBS AND ACOUSTIC OPEN NIGHTS INCLUDING “THE ELECTRIC BALLROOM” AND THE HISTORICAL “100 CLUB”. IN 2010, THE BAND RELEASED THEIR FIRST E.P, WHICH, FOR THE FIRST TIME, USED FREE ONLINE DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS SUCH AS “JAMENDO” TO RECEIVE WIDER ATTENTION AND A GOOD NUMBER OF DOWNLOADS. IN THE SAME YEAR THEY TEAMED UP WITH DIRECTOR NAIKOL ZEIS WHO DIRECTED THEIR FIRST MUSIC VIDEO “STUCK IN YOU” (WHICH YOU CAN WATCH ON THE BAND’S OFFICIAL MYSPACE PAGE).
IN SUMMER OF 2012 THEY RECORDED THEIR FIRST FULL LENGTH ALBUM ENTITLED “NEVER BE DEFEAT”, WHICH WAS MIXED AND MASTERED AT W-REC STUDIOS IN PALERMO, ITALY, RELEASED ON APRIL 4 2013 AND WAS FOLLOWED BY AN ITALIAN TOUR.
