Weird Bloom: WEIRD BLOOM is the junk-shop and bubble gum project led by Luca Di Cataldo, alongside David Comanducci, Adriano Bartoccini and Mattia Micalich, based in Rome.

The project was founded in 2015, previously known as Weird Black, while taking its first steps within the psych-pop realm. It has released four albums to date: Hy Brazil (2016), Blisstonia (2018, distributed by Rough Trade East, Brick Lane), the acclaimed Stargate (2024) and their latest effort, Wrong Time, Wrong Place (2026). The band’s signature sound features an eccentric use of saturated, tinny guitars, where Luca’s melodies ride over a wall of early-70s-inspired driving drum rhythms and rich harmonies. Their aesthetic direction and deep-rooted connection to junk-shop and bubble gum sounds ignited in 2016, following a pivotal artistic encounter and exchange with L.A. legend Don Bolles of The Germs, Hammered Satin and Ariel Pink. Weird Bloom’s international trajectory is marked by multiple appearances at SXSW in Austin, Texas. Following their 2017 and 2018 showcases—where their track “My Dear Elena Summer’s Vudun” was selected among the best songs of SXSW by NPR’s Robin Hilton—the band returned to Austin in 2025. This return featured a World Cafe session for NPR, recorded in their hometown of Rome as part of the renowned “Sense of Place” series, further cementing the project’s reputation in the global independent scene. Other notable international performances include Eurosonic 2018 in Groningen and The Great Escape 2018 in Brighton. Known for intense and relentless live activity, the project has toured extensively across the continent, including the RIV European Tour in 2019, the Breakin’ Bones Tour in 2022 and the West Glitters European Tour in 2025. On the Italian circuit, the band has performed at independent festivals including Rock Your Head, A Night Like This, Home Festival, Disorder Festival, Busker Festival, Bada Fest and Duna Jam.

While their 2024 album Stargate became an underground success, selling out its first pressing and requiring a second edition through Hell Nation, the band has opened a crucial new chapter. Their new full-length album, Wrong Time, Wrong Place, is released via Wild Honey Records. The record pushes the boundaries of their sonic identity, evolving into a distinctive blend of junk-shop, bubble gum and pub music. The song “Self Nature” was co-written with their longtime collaborator and mentor Don Bolles. In support of the album, the band is currently unleashing its raw energy on the Spaghetti Denim Tour: a live journey crossing mainland Europe, including dates in Germany and France, and bringing their sonic chaos to UK clubs for the first time. The tour continues throughout 2026 and the first half of 2027. On stage, the core lineup is joined by Lorenzo Masini and Alessandro Costantino on guitars. Behind the scenes and in the studio, the project relies on the contribution of Edoardo Elia as arranger and sound engineer. Other releases include a 2019 digital split single with Ikarya Eiichi via Japan’s Lost Frog and The Flying Pan Club EP with Dizzyride via WWNBB.
