Tin Woodman band return to take you to Tropicalia Woodie Resort, the new single available on all digital platforms from June 18th, 2021, in the usual month of the Pride parade, via Retro Vox Records. “We are an atypical and different band, so why shouldn’t everyone be different from each other and be able to love who prefer? We have created a place where anyone can do it: Tropicalia Woodie Resort”.
The Italian band, formed by Simone Ferrari (Simon Diamond), Davide Chiari (Dave The Wave) and obviously Tin Woodman, the robot landed from the secret city of Wautah in order to become a rock star, organized a festive trip that brings together the glam music from the 80s, catchy indie pop melodies, robotic rap and sci-fi setting in a celebration of LGBTQIA+ rights and love as absolute autonomy of choice: “We looked at Tin Woodman as a creature not sexually defined and therefore without prejudice towards anyone, who urges ‘humans’ to participate in life as a gigantic party organized in the most vicious Resort in the Universe. The freedom to be oneself, to perceive oneself in relation to our most intimate desires, without the fear of the others’ judgment, is the theme of the song and is the characteristic we love most in people. The future must be a riot of colors, the rainbow colors, as happens in every verse of this song”.
The inspiration that triggered the writing of Tropicalia Woodie Resort has been Pike Resort, in Ibiza, the most popular holiday destination for stars in the Eighties and the epitome of a musical and cultural movement. Featuring Michele Marelli on drums and Chiara Amalia Bernardini from KICK on the choirs, the song speaks of a magical place with vibrant tropical atmosphere, in an explosion of diving into the pool, stars and showers of diamonds. At Tropicalia Woodie Resort there are no genders, there are no categories, there is no race and there are no inhibitions.
So, Simon Diamond and Dave The Wave returned to the recording studio, at La Buca Recording Club in Montichiari, Brescia, after releasing the debut EP Metal Sexual Toy Boy in 2017 and the first album Azkadellia in 2018. Meantime, they have always been engaged in long tours, also supporting colleagues such as Public Service Broadcasting and The Last Internationale, and are currently working on a whole new live set, and Tin Woodman, the world’s only on-stage music-making robot, is getting revamped, with a new feature upgrade covering lights and movements.
