Piero Peluche

About

Piero Peluche is artistically born from an idea by Claudio Pagani, a multi-instrumentalist musician, composer and producer living in Tuscany, Italy. Piero Peluche was inspired to make music by big bands like The Who and Pink Floyd, as well as punk bands like The Stranglers, The Ramones, and Ultravox. In the 80s, Piero started playing music as a drummer in a band formed with his brother called Norman Bates. The two brothers and their Nigerian friend, Teacher Mike, published their first mini album Professy with the ragamuffin band Ruff Selectors in the 90s. Ruff Selectors vocalists were Irene Grandi (acclaimed Italian singer, songwriter, and actress) and Simona Bencini (from the well-known Italian band Dirotta su Cuba). Throughout the 2000s, Piero Peluche learned to play many other instruments like bass, keyboards, and guitar while collaborating with numerous local artists and bands including Priscilla Paisley, Lokomotiv Stakanov, Gli Astronomi Delle Stelle Spente, Greyscale, and PpoopP. In 2012, Piero decided to dedicate the majority of his energy to the production side of music with remixes of international artists. This led him to Kara Square’s vocals on ccMixter. Piero transformed Kara's songs into huge arrangements with full instrumentation and sparkling production. They released their Tex-Mex guitar and ukulele fueled surfer pop rock album, Square Meter, in early 2014.
