Unsigned Entertainment

The Wanderfate were born in 2004 on initiative of Federico and Matteo.

The band (originally composed by Elena – lead vocal, Federico – guitar, Matteo (Matthew) – keyboard, Matteo – Bass, Omar – drums) performs the competition “Rock Senza Etichetta” and, in the meanwhile, they record the first demo-including two tracks: Waitin’ For You and The Power Of Dreams.

In 2005 the band takes part in two music knock-out competitions: "Emergenza Festival" and "Pagella Rock". In the first they pass the regional final phase where Federico wins the prize "best guitarrist of the contest". At "Pagella Rock", instead, they reach the semifinal phase, receiving regards for the songs and the musical arrangements anyway.

But at the beginning of this year new troubles fall over them, due to a short interest of the singer Elena. Despite the climate a little "off", the Wanderfate run up a series of dates, including one of their most important exibition (even if the latest with Elena): the concert held on march 11th at piazza Castello in Torino at "Cioccolatò 2005".

The band is now seeking a turning point: the formation fact grows with Carlo (now busy with the "Hangin' Tree" from Orbassano), which becomes part of Wanderfate in the role of second guitarist. Unfortunately the experiment fails because he participates only two dates before leaving the band.

The last concert of Spring is the "Red Festival" of Cirié where the band performs with a four-members formation with the voices of Matthew and Federico: first trouble to solve now is to find a new voice for the group. So, in June 2005 the Wanderfate decide to replace the actual singer hiring a new voice: Jessica.  A new concerts season can begin and in the meanwhile the band records a new demo ("Out Of The Sun") containing four new songs: For Jonathan, Lost From My Sight, Waitin' For You and Pleasant.

The 2007 starts in the best possible way, because one of their songs, "For Jonathan", is selected by the record company Arci Sana Records of Milano to be placed in a box containing songs of young emerging bands from all over Italy. And after three years activities, the Wanderfate record another demo ("Third") including three songs: So Little, So Slight, Ways Of Madness, e Weeping Willow. Songs that will take part in the coming concert lists.

In the early months of 2008, the Wanderfate also access the final phase of the “Rock Targato Italia” music contest and, thanks to the number of public votes, awarding a place of merit (then across the selections) to participate in the next edition.

So, It was the time of turning the sound with the latest demo “Sound Project”, recorded between July and October, containing four tracks: Sound Project (on two versions), So Little, So Slight,  Just Like A Mirror and Waitin’ For You.

In 2009 the band change the line-up replacing bassist, Matteo, with Domenico Buratti. And in the meantime, the search for a new singer still goes on.
