Lead singer Steve Houk has sung for 18 years in local cover band Second Wind, in Bandhouse Gig tribute bands, and now also sings for The Rainmakers as well two acoustic duos. Drummer Ken Nottingham is currently also in Collective Delusion, the Quadrapheniacs and Wildflower Dreams, and talented multi-instrumentalist and record collector Bruce Zimmer is on keyboards and guitar and also vocals and harmonica.
The Napstamind are a trio from Rome that merges the psychedelic vibes of the 1970s with a modern rock attitude. The band communicates its perspective on the human experience through the voices of all its members, who alternate during their performances. Musically, the band delivers a show characterized by a continuous fluctuation of intensity and emotions, transitioning from introspective and spatial moments to achieving fuzzy/hi-gain sounds and lively rhythms.
The band debuted with their self-titled EP in 2024. Currently, Napstamind is heavily involved in the venues of the Roman music scene and is dedicating themselves to producing their debut album. This album, titled Nel Giardino A Vapore, will be preceded by three singles released over the three months before its official release on October 7th, during a release party at the Jammin 2024 festival in Rome. Afterward, the band will fly to the United States for a 10-date tour in November.
