Miss Chain has some issues with heels but no problem at all with rock ‘n’ roll. Miss Chain: you’ll probably either hate her deeply or love her madly. Or both. And she’s not alone.

Miss Chain has some issues with heels but no problem at all with rock ‘n’ roll. Miss Chain: you’ll probably either hate her deeply or love her madly. Or both. And she’s not alone. Disaster Silva and the Barcella Bros. are the Broken Heels! Together manage to create a unique blend of rough-edged pop, sixties beat and ‘80s daydreams. No disco, odd clothes or trendy music, though: just songs that touch your heart, soul and feet! The band started just as a solo/side project of the young singer/guitarist Astrid Dante and really took off after Sonic Jett Records from Portland released the debut single “Common Shell” in January 2008, co-produced with Rijapov Records from Brescia, Italy. Since then there’s been a whole lot of gigs in Italy, a US East Coast tour, a second single (“Boys & girls”, sold out in just two months) for the Japanese Dream On Records, and another european tour in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Sweden. The third single “Lie”, published by Shake Your Ass Records, which already put on the map other young and talented garage-bands like Mojomatics, Love Boat and Rippers, allowed the band to get a contract with the seminal Screaming Apple Records, the world top-notch garage-power-pop label, a true quality mark. The german label just released their first LP, “On a Bittersweet Ride”, which is already gaining a great response from both, public and critic. The album saw it’s US release on Sonic Jett Records (on CD), and on soon-to-be-legendary Los Angeles-based Burger Records (on cassette-tape!!!), allowing the band to tour again the States, this time surfing the whole West-Coast. 18 shows in 18 days, going from the San Francisco’s Total Trash Festival, up to the Washington state and then down ‘til Mexicali, Mexico !! The band is now touring Europe to promote the album, sharing joy with all the kids. Bring along some extra shoes: you never know!
