Originating in Piacenza, Italy in 2017, The Backdoor Society delivers a powerful blend of '60s Nederbeat, British psychedelia and freakbeat, Texas acid punk, and Byrdsian jangle. Formed from the ashes of renowned Italian garage rockers The Rookies, the band is comprised of Giovanni (vocals), Simone (guitar) and Andrea (drums), along with new bass player Denis. While recording their eponymous debut LP in 2019, the band set aside two unfinished songs that were perfected through a collaboration with legendary Hammond player Paolo Apollo Negri, resulting in the high-powered, organ-driven, garage-psych groove of their Hypnotic Bridge 45. Paolo is recognized as one of the most important and influential Hammond players on the international scene. He has been part of the Link Quartet since 1997 and his reputation as an eclectic session man continues to grow, playing on more than 300 albums while covering almost every music style.
