BIOGRAPHY

"Welcome to the surrealist splendour of Rinaldi Sings," wrote the NME in September 2004. Welcome indeed. Rinaldi Sings play a stylish and uptempo brand of pop that acknowledges a deep debt to the bubblegum soul of the late Sixties.

With a complicated pop sound sometimes likened to My Life Story and the Divine Comedy, the band are fronted by star in the making, Steve Rinaldi, described by the NME as "a cocksure 21st Century Scott Walker".

The first Rinaldi Sings single was released on Tangerine Records in May 2004. A cover version of Tony Christie's 'Avenues And Alleyways', theme tune to Seventies cult TV show 'The Protectors', the single was one of DJ Gary Crowley's Choice Cuts Of The Week on BBC Radio London, while the flipside track 'Lucky Day' appeared at No.10 in the Playlist of MOJO magazine. To promote the single, Rinaldi Sings made a promotional film, directed by cult singer/songwriter and former Creation Records lynchpin Edward Ball.

The debut Rinaldi Sings album 'What's It All About?' has received rave reviews in many of the country's leading rock magazines and featured among the Best Albums Of 2004 in the Village Voice's annual Rock Critics Poll, despite not being released until the following year! The album was produced by Ian Shaw and the many musical collaborators who featured on the recordings included Paul Bevoir of The Jetset, who also co-wrote 'This Time Tomorrow' with Steve Rinaldi. The second single 'Come Fly With Me' was released to coincide with the album in March 2005. Later in the year the band also recorded a cover version of 'Hold On', which appeared on a Redskins tribute album.

WHAT THE CRITICS SAID ABOUT RINALDI SINGS

"This album of time travel pop oozes with fab Sixties kitsch and wouldn't have sounded out of place in a Carnaby Street boutique. As an exercise in nostalgia, this is carried off with care, affection and impeccable attention to detail." Daily Mail



"An authentic trip round swinging Laandahn in the company of Steve Rinaldi - a man with a penchant for sunshiney pop and a voice only bettered by his ultra-sharp mohair suits." NME



"A modern day take on the kind of blue eyed soulful pop that made the play list at the latter day Wigan Casino the original material showcases a wry lyricist and talented arranger especially on the joyously infectious horn blast of Happy." Record Collector



"Upbeat, melodic, brass-flecked easy listening and decidedly '60s Cockernee-toned pop from the peculiar but very promising Steve Rinaldi." Time Out



"Coming on like a pre-Jude Law Alfie with a Pulp fixation, Steve Rinaldi leads an eight-piece band through bubblegum soul and Scott Walker-ish torch ballads to rollicking effect. A real curio." Uncut



"This charming debut sits somewhere between the harder edged and super-earnest Dexy's Midnight Runners and the ironic orchestral pop of The Divine Comedy. The '60s revisited and revitalised." What's On In London



"The songs are melodic and beautifully constructed. Compulsive stuff." Paolo Hewitt



"I can't get it off the CD deck!" Mojo
