The Cellophane Flowers influences

The Cellophane Flowers
"Swirling sounds of The Cellophane Flowers"
The Cellophane Flowers are an avant-garde rock band with a pop sensibility. One look or listen at kookie Italian singer Francesca and you’ll instantly forget your name, what you’re doing and why you’re doing it while you try and work out exactly where she’s coming from.

She has a unique style, bringing an Italian flavour to songs that talk of alienation in a world of manufactured beauty (hence the name) and recalls the work of the likes of Kirsty McColl and Nina Nastasia. The Cellophane Flowers are based in London and bring together a stew of international flavours with Brazilian-British guitarist, Armenian-British drummer and Maltese-Australian-Italian bassist

The band is readying itself for the October launch tour for their spanking new single ‘If I Was A Girl’, produced by The Animal Farm and mixed by Oli Wright at Miloco Studios.

best industry quotes

  1. "Italian-born singer Francesca Corradini coos like Lily Allen, if the pop tart had been raised on the Mediterranean." SPIN Magazine
  2. "Trying to define the ever-evolving sound of The Cellophane Flowers is difficult. Even when on stage at Club Ugly one is never sure whether these guys sound more like the Cocteau Twins, Fleetwood Mac or something very post-grunge. Eventually it is better to stop worrying and just let the swirling noise surround you." The Best of Club Ugly - Ugly Nephew
  3. "Swirling sounds and classy tunes that tap you on the shoulder as you shower" N.M.E.
