FERNANDO GIOVANNETTI SHREDS!



At first, The Supremacy could be faced as a studio project, since its members live quite far away from each other. But it's definitely a Hard Rock/Heavy Metal BAND. It all begun when guitarist Bill Hudson and bassist Fernando Giovannetti were hired to play with Japanese singers Hyronobu Kageyama and Akira Kushida in a huge concert called Anime Friends in 2003. During the rehearsals, the guys started to talk about their favorite bands and musicians and ended up hanging out and jamming a couple of times. Those jams turned into a couple of new songs, and the new songs led them to Bill's homestudio to record it to see how it would sound. They loved it! Next step was to find the right musicians. After talking to many people, Bill met drummer Mark Cross (ex-Helloween/ex-Metalium) who had just recovered from a serious disease which took him out of the business for a year. Keyboard rising star Joost Van Den Broek (After Forever/Star One) was the next one. A singer was still missing, but after writing many new songs, the band decided to record a 2 track demo and keep on searching for a frontman. During the recordings, many singers were auditioned, but they couldn't find the right person to fill the spot. After a couple of months, Rafael Gubert (Akashic/Barros) with his powerful voice and incredible stage presence was chosen. Due to the multi-cultural line-up (Brazil, USA, UK and Holland), The Supremacy's music has many different influences and could be described as a Hard Rock/Heavy Metal with its roots in Hard Rock and classic Rock N' Roll.
