Electra

Electra is definitely following the Kasbah Rock tradition combining raw live energies of the likes of ‘the Clash’ with an activist political agenda, reflecting to this troubled part of the world. This band is about passion, anger and fun. Mixed together and poured into jagged guitar pop tunes that vary from 50′s Rockabilly to 60′s harmonies, snotty punk and far beyond with a current vibrant edge.

Electra injects adrenalin and charisma to the veins of the growing music scene in the happening city of Tel Aviv and now they are Coming to Get You! As their massive hit single declares.

This trio is known in their home country as the busiest band on the road, where they earned a strong and devoted following base. The band’s full album ‘Heartbreaks for Fools’ was released in July 2010 on Anova Records, to a buzzing media attention, received praises from music critics (“A huge band. Not the best big thing but the current one”, Yedioth Achronoth, Israel’s largest daily).

It’s the song craft, unique combination of influences,  bawdy, rollicking melodies and stylish appeal that made Electra reach top positions in major radio charts, that use to be dominated by mainstream mellow acts, with the three singles the band have put out this year.

Electra was invited to open up for ‘The Fall’ and ‘Art brut’ in recent months.

The band has played at SXSW 2011 to great reviews followed by shows in New York and Washington. They will return to tour the USA in October 2011.

Electra are singed at Anova Music.
