walking in winter woods with wood, fighting against hardcore sufference, lake at night without fish, alcoholic days, short sweet reason, literature, J.M.Basquiat, summer nights full of crickets, autumn's sunsets valium, alpine landscapes and... abbacchio!
Mauve takes shape one day of May 2005 in Verbania (Italy). After a short talk inside the local library's garden, Carlo (guitar, voice) and Elda (drums, samples) bring it to life.
After the winter, Alberto (guitar, glockenspiel) joins the band that grows up very fast. Their sound begins to have a double side, like Doctor Jekyll and Mr.Hyde story: instrumental music, noisy and evocative on one side; melancholic indie-rock songs with love lyrics on the other.
In August 2006 Mauve record their first four-track EP called "Sweet noise on the sofa" . n January 2007 the group joins the label Canebagnato Records and the EP ‘Sweet noise on the sofa’ is included in the label catalogue.
The EP ‘Sweet noise on the sofa’ gets positive feedbacks from the web and music magazines. In March 2007, the song ‘Mauve Paranoid’ is included in the compilation created by the webzine U-Turn which collects the best music of that period: Mauve Paranoid is among Low, Blonde Redhead, Dinosaur jr.
For the whole year Mauve offered their music in different (and sometimes strange) places. In october 2007 Mauve record Electronic Scales for the compilation Canebagnato Records.
In November 2007 Mauve recorded their first album. For a fortnight Mauve lived and played in a old farmstead in the Langhe region ( Southern Piemonte, near the city of Alessandria).
In february 2008 Matteo Frova (bass) joins Mauve.
