Nosound is an Italian alternative rock band started in 2002 by Giancarlo Erra. The group plays music in several different genres, including alternative rock, post rock, electronic, and ambient. All their early recordings were composed, performed, produced, engineered, and released by Erra, who subsequently formed Nosound in 2006. Started as a one-man studio project in 2005 by multi-instrumentalist Giancarlo Erra and evolved then into a full band, Nosound inventively combines influences from ’70s psychedelia, ’80s/’90s ambient, soundtracks, alternative and post-rock. The music is dynamic and intense, with personal songwriting and using a variety of vintage and modern electronic instruments. Influences range from Pink Floyd to Brian Eno, from Radiohead to Sigur Ros, passing through rock and electronic music. Signed in 2008 with London based Kscope/Snapper record label and AMF Publishing (Kobalt), Nosound released through the years several albums on CD/DVD/Blu-ray/vinyl, and it’s present on all digital platforms. Over the years the band collaborated in the studio with musicians like Chris Maitland (ex Porcupine Tree), Tim Bowness (No-Man), Vincent Cavanagh (ex Anathema), Andrea Chimenti. Nosound played several major festivals and shared the stage with Steve Hackett, Tony Levin, Anathema, and many others. Two of the band's albums won the Italian Rock/Prog Music Awards Best Recording honor: Lightdark – 2008 Best Recording and A Sense of Loss – 2009 Best Recording.
