Biography:
The Actions, London based alternative rock band. Hundreds gigs played in Europe including MTV On Stage, the Arezzo Wave Festival, the Heineken Jammin' Festival, opening for R.E.M., GREEN DAY, GARBAGE, DISTILLERS, I AM KLOOT, AFTERHOURS, ALMAMEGRETTA... The Actions soon began winning band competitions. Their first demo led them to make inroads in the UK receiving a rousing reception at the historic Cavern Club in Liverpool for two years in a row and getting airplay on DJ Pete Tong's BBC Radio 1 show "The Essential Selection" with Planet Funk's remix of their song "The Real Thing". The buzz around the band and their worldwide fan base are growing day by day thanks to their live activity and the good reviews from international press. Their first album "Real" has been licensed to Nikita Music, a Brazilian record label based in Rio De Janeiro and released in all Latin America. Then, after opening 2 dates of the "VASCO ROSSI TOUR" at Arechi Stadium in Salerno in front of a total audience of 90000, The Actions signed a “one album” publishing deal with Warner Chappell (Italy) and released “Real” in the rest of the world. Recently the single "The Real Thing" has been chosen by MTV US and included in the movie "My Super Psycho Sweet 16" O.S.T. airing in USA and worldwide on MTV channels. After that the band passed through a period of artistic collaborations and sound experimentations that led them to the conception of brand new material. The Actions' singer Silty (Marta Argenio) has been invited by TRICKY to perform one song with him on stage at Melkweg in Amsterdam ("False Idols" tour 2013). Silty has been chosen by Tricky after recording a vocal track on his unfinished track. Right now The Actions are promoting their brand new “INDEFENSIBLE” EP in London.
