Biography 2 (254 words)

Man City Sirens, a five-piece Australian indie rock band from Melbourne, recounts musically tales of life in the vein of tiny, thoughtful melodramas meant to bring joy.
 
Vocally inspired by Seventeenth and Eighteenth Century Italian arias, the songs exude a playfulness and excitement that sparkles with the poppy innocence of the 1960s.

The band has kicked off 2022 with renewed enthusiasm and energy!

Since adding female keyboardist Giovanna Hammond to their lineup, the band has acquired a fresh new sound and image.

Their new single, ‘Love Is So Sweet’, is testament to the new sound, which sees singer-songwriter-guitarist Walter Musolino, channelling Morrissey.

“With the songs of Morrissey, I discovered a kindred spirit drawn to the beauty and the ugliness of the commonplace, an artist whose ease of seductive poetic expression, is in contrast to the labours of a rigorous intelligence always at work in the pursuit of enlightenment” – Walter Musolino

Walter Musolino’s lyrics depict a unique blend of irony, humour and darkness. There is a certain sense of honesty in his writing – and with his views on life.

‘Love Is So Sweet’s’ catchy melody and vocals, enhanced by a beautiful nylon- string guitar solo provided by second guitarist and harmony vocalist Davide Musolino, belies the song’s bittersweet lyrics.

‘Love Is So Sweet’ was produced by Victor Stranges and recorded at Thirty Mill Studios in Melbourne, Australia, by recording engineer Colin Wynne, who has worked alongside legendary Australian producer Mark Opitz AM (INXS, Cold Chisel, AC/DC, The Divinyls) and American producer Mitchell Froom.
