We're super excited to announce that we will be performing at Walker Stalker Con in London on the 20th and 21st of February. 

We're big fans of the hit tv show 'The Walking Dead', So we're incredibly giddy that we will be performing 4 sets throughout the weekend in-between panels with the cast and crew talking about the show.

We have to give a huge thank you Jason and Karen from the Walking DeadCast for asking us to perform at the event. If you love the Walking Dead as much as we do we thoroughly recommend you check out their podcast!

Wow! What a fantastic evening. We are so chuffed it was a success and the rain managed to hold off. it was superb to see such a great turn out, all stood beneath the big screen with boxes of popcorn ready for the first public showing of the film we have been waiting so long to show! We can not thank you all enough, from the people who helped and supported our kickstarter, to the actors and extras in the film, Conor bUtler the skilled cinematographer behind the camera, Micah Harbon - set designer  extraordinaire, fabulous makeup artists, costume designer Amy Macfadyn, prop designer jon dale absolutely everyone!, too many to name (should all be named in the credits of the movie). 

The night was magnificent and the live music provided by Waiting For Wednesday, Dave Hanson (both artists have just released amazing EPs check them out) and Sarah Widdup was stunning. We missed Hutch (the handsome kilted fire juggler in the film) who was due to play some songs too, he had a finger/door accident on the way to the premier "hope it heals well hutch and we will hear you sing soon". Forsters Bistro made for luxurious venue with friendly staff, yummy food and cocktails and the sound guy george was mint!

Then we danced the night away to a massive jam with various lead vocalists even Kaitlin -"the coldest queen" took to the stage and showed her impressive belting on Mustang sally. A very special moment was when lee otway (and yes he did play bombhead on hollyoaks) wooed us all with his phenominal voice! we are so grateful to all who came and made the night one to remember, and pleased the lord mayor came,stayed till the end and enjoyed it. Massive thanks to BCB Radios Ann Morgan, YMC Michelle Delgaety, BBC Radios Jenny Elles, and Philip Lickley who wrote a blog, Bradford Telegraph and Argus, BBC Introducings Alan RAw and Darren Williams, and YEP Duncan Seaman, Unesco David Wilson and Councillor Richard Dunbar 

we thank you all for your continued support and are, as we type, planning more shows and videos for the near future. Please feel free to share your photos and videos from the night here. Singing out for now

Love

Saturday 31st May 2015 at 1.35pm we took to the Stage at Bradford Pride in City Park. The atmosphere was incredible and everyone could feel the love in the air. It was Bradford Prides 10th anniversary , the city was glowing, as were the beautiful crowds and the air was brimming with good vibes. We feel very honoured and lucky to have been apart of it this year and hope to be back next year. 

The winner of the Photo Competition is Ryan Noble who snapped a fab shot of super cool Chris Bland on Keys

THANK YOU! As a result of your fantastic generosity and support, we have been able to shoot our music video "The Coldest Queen". We are having a rap party at The Old White Horse in Bingley on the "24th of May starting at 4.00 pm, we are looking forward to seeing you all there and to thank you all once again, particularly those hardy souls who gave up their time to help us with the shoot 
on a particularly cold weekend. We will be playing a few songs so make sure you bring your dancing shoes. We are busy making plans for the premier, which we intend to be as spectacular as the video. See you all on the 24th.

Help us Make our next music video

9/3/2015

We're excited to announce that we are in the process making our second music video, and we want you to be a part of it.

For this video we are making a short film with high production values.

We have professional actors on board as well as, a fight co-ordinator, props maker and costume designer. 

To get this video made we are using Kickstarter. For those who have not heard of Kickstarter; Kickstarter is a crowdfunding website that allows anybody to pledge their support to a project in return for one-of-a-kind rewards. 

If you pledge your support to our video you can be a part of the process and help make the short film with us. By pledging to the Kickstarter you can get various exclusive rewards such as: a part in the film, custom madeprops, an unplugged acoustic show in your own living room, and many others.

To see the Kickstarter page where you can get involved, click HERE
Our campaign is very short, we only have 21 days to reach our goal, but Kickstarter works in unique way:

If you pledge money to the project and we do not achieve our funding goal then no money gets taken out of your account. So you can guarantee that whatever you contribute, the project will be made. 

Thank you for all of your support,

ISSIMO
