About Me |
|
Phil Angotti has become a household name in the power-pop musical world, especially in his hometown Chicago where he’s been performing for over 20 years. He has performed as a solo act throughout his career, and with several bands, most notably the Fleas, the Scuffle, the Beatle Brothers, Not the Beatles (with Brad & Graham Elvis) and his long-time original group, The Idea.He has released 10 different albums over the years, been on several CD compilations and tributes, and has made numerous radio appearances as a solo artist, Beatle Brother and leader of The Idea. Known for his strong lead vocals and versatile harmony singing, he is also an innovative guitarist (acoustic and electric). His style is a diverse mixture of British ’60s power pop, American folk rock, and modern guitar pop, played mostly with explosive energy and sensibility. As a songwriter, he has proven again and again he can write melodies and hooks with the best of them and has penned numerous original songs (108 recorded to date).In 2001, Phil and The Idea released the 15-song album Flower Bomb,(on Jam Records - great power-pop label he had just signed on to) that has not only gotten college radio play but has been on WXRT radio, both on Richard Milne’s Local Anesthetic and the day time slot "Time Capsule." Flower Bomb was quickly followed by an eight-song EP, G. Elvis is Still Alive featuring outtakes from Flower Bomb and three ’60s pop classics. 2004 saw the release of Phil’s solo acoustic album, Juliette Foster, the soundtrack to an imaginary film, featuring Phil on guitars and vocals and the debut of Martha Larson ..o.Phil is currently finishing up a new, full-band album, titled East Side Soul due out in June. Phil is currently playing solo, acoustic shows, as well as duo shows with Martha Larson. Phil plans to perform with his band, The Idea, at the upcoming release show for East Side Soul (Bebelo will be opening). Purchase the Juliette Foster Soundtrack here.
