Pino Farina Band

Adult-alternative rockers, Pino Farina Band, are known for their showmanship, high-energy performances as well as tender, intimate songs. Lead singer and lyricist Pino Farina’s powerhouse voice is his true instrument and is often compared to that of late indie-artist Jeff Buckley’s. His five-octave voice range envelops one’s heart as he and the band take listeners through trials, tribulations, and redemption in their songs. After touring the country extensively as the award-winning band Pünsapaya (Chicago Music Awards, 2005 Rock Album of the Year) with their debut album Prepare to Qualify, they stepped away for a time of rediscovery as artists, songwriters and performers. In 2018, the band released Start Over Again and have been enthusiastically welcomed back by long-time fans and a new musical community. When venues shuttered their doors during the pandemic, Pino Farina Band connected a community virtually through music. Wowed by the sometimes four-hour livestreams, their bourgeoning popularity earned them a feature role in the documentary, Cover 21: Ignite Chicago. Released in 2021 this indie film explored the local music industry, the hardships faced and strategies formed to overcome and thrive in that challenging environment. 
 Their new EP “Daisies” is not a sweet flower of an album, but a “pushing up daisies” collection of songs dealing with self-doubt, relationship struggles, rock bottoms and situations where life turns on a dime.
