ACHILLA
"Female fronted Prog-Goth band"
Frontwoman Martamaria (Hungary) can be found in the Guinness Book of World Records for her unique vocal range. She is joined by prog rocking keyboard player Gonzalo Carrera (Spain) & guitar/anything with strings 'Hero' Daniele Panza (Italy). Completing Achilla are Gus Macricostas (Greece) on his bass and Vincenzo Infusino (Italy) behind the drums.

Hailed as a kind of United Nations of contemporary rock/metal, made up of musicians from all over the Globe who live and work in London (UK).

Employing their distinct musical heritages and sometimes competing influences to create the music of 'Achilla'.

A vocal range that defies comparison is accompanied by scales and structures that defy the norm and yet the result is somehow firmly rooted in the best traditions of rock and metal.
