European Tour Booking for Punk, Rock and Indie Artists

AUTOGRAMM (CA)
Power Pop, New Wave



Autogramm sind ein Synthie Power-Pop Trio aus Vancouver, Kanada. Ihr uptempo vintage New Wave Sound stammt von Bassist C.C.Voltage, Gitarrist Jiffy Marx und Schlagzeuger The Silo, die ihre Liebe zu Proto-Punk und Power-Pop miteinander teilen. Gitarrist Marx spielt ebenfalls Keyboard, während Bass und Schlagzeug den Rhythmus vorgeben.

Wenn du ein Fan von The Cars, The Go Go's, Gary Numan oder Devo bist, werden Dir Autogramm auch gefallen.

Die drei sind bekannte Größen in der Musikszene Vancouvers und teilten sich bereits die Bühne, Freunde und sogar Bandmitglieder in Bands wie Black Mountain, Destroyer, Lightning Dust, Blood Meridian, The Spitfires, Black Halos und Hard Drugs.

Innerhalb eines Jahres nach der Gründung von Autogramm veröffentlichten sie ihre erste Single, traten in Kalifornien auf, wo sie gleich zwei Labels begeisterten, und machten eine Westküstentournee mit Bread & Butter aus Seattle.

Derzeit feiert die Band die Veröffentlichung ihrer ersten LP "What R U Waiting 4?" auf Nevado Music, gefolgt von weiteren Touren, darunter eine mit Gringo Star aus Atlanta und eine Handvoll Shows mit Needles//Pins, ebenfalls aus Vancouver.

Autogramm tourten 2019 durch die USA, Mexiko und Europa, veröffentlichten im Frühjahr 2021 ihr fantastisches neues Album "No Rules" und werden im Sommer 2022 erneut durch Europa touren.




Reviews


"Autogramm is not afraid to show their influence and their influence is that exact point where Punk and New Wave merged in 1978. Taking the minimalist hooks from the Cars and the slightly sinister buzz of Tubeway Army, Autogramm crank out a catchy number that not only would fit right at home on an I love the ‘80s soundtrack, but would also put about half of the songs on that tape to shame."
- John Gentile, Punknews, NYC


"The members of Autogramm never abandoned the acts they loved as kids, even during their punk-rock years, when a lot of everything that’s not fast, loud, and snotty gets thrown overboard. Binding the three musicians together was a sincere interest in paying tribute to a fabled late-’70s/early-’80s period in music that they love. The era-specific spectres of lipstick-smeared new wave, grey-hued postpunk, and freak-flag synth-pop hang joyfully over 'What R U Waiting 4?'."
- Mike Usinger, Georgia Straight, Vancouver


"The band’s first full-length 'What R U Waiting 4?' is a polished power-pop record, brimming with sunny, synthy rock songs sporting a smooth 80s sensibility that draws from the Cars and Gary Numan."
- Adam White, Some Party, Niagara Falls


"If you are looking for a kickass new band to pay some attention to, look no further than Autogramm. The band possesses a retro vibe with a decidedly international flavor. From perfectly-crafted radio friendly power-punk songs to indie and new-wave, with many other stops in between, the new album is sure to make instant fans out of anyone that listens."
- Northwest Music Scene, Tacoma


"The two songs on this here 7” are synth heavy, mid-tempo New Wave-y tunes that remind me of something that could have been on the Cars Panorama  LP. If you miss the days when bands like Split Enz and Ultravox roamed the earth in top form, then Autogramm have come to answer you desperate pleas."
- Audio Ammunition, Los Angeles


"CC Voltage lived in Berlin and played in the vintage hardcore band Dysnea Boys before coming back to Vancouver. In German, an autogramm is an autograph. Goes well with the kind of German new wave vibe of songs such as Peter Pan. It sort of reminds me of After the Fire’s Der Kommissar."
- Stuart Derdeyn, Vancouver Sun, Vancouver


"If you've been hankering after some old school Tubeway army style alt-punk, then get an ear full of this: it’s the Cars driving Numan around listening to some real ‘80s radio before checking out Duncan Reid - it's that catchy."
- Uber Rock, U.K.


"These guys hail from Vancouver and have turned in two synth laced, new wave pop songs that sound like they're straight out of 1979. Like The Cars, Autogramm have a strong pop structure at the root of both songs."
- I Buy Too Many Records, New Jersey


"Is there a new wave of new wave? Let’s hope so, because this new Autogramm  single is killer! If your love of new wave is the combination of power pop injected with synths, bands like The Cars, 20/20, The Motors, and the like, then Vancouver’s Autogramm hits a home run here."
- 50 Third and 3rd, Manhattan


"In style and substance they bring to mind The Cars. A lot of people may not like that comparison—hell the band may not even like it—but I do mean it as a high compliment. The chorus is on repeat in my brain and I don’t have a problem with that."
- Razorcake, Los Angeles
