interview oil The OIL puslish an ep, Electroshock Serenade, which tells stories of escape and emotions. We ask a few questions to the band. Can you tell your story? [Federico] As OIL, we exist since 2009. Me and Alessandro we were bass and guitar of BlueBonnets, a band of mainstream rock sung in English very much appreciated. After the dissolution of BlueBonnets, and a break of almost three years, we started to play together and to compose new original songs and created the basis for what in 2009 would become the OIL project. In the first period of the band, the drummer was Umberto Pantano. Great musician and teacher. In 2011, with the exit of Umberto from the band, we began collaborating with Massimo Savo. Thus began the encouragement that led us to the registration of Upstairs, the first self-produced album 34 that was released in September of 2013. Electroshock Serenade, our second work, was released in May
