Artist Information
Biography
Luminol was originally formed in Italy by Christian Valenti (Cloister) and Barbara Burgio where the duo released the band first full lenght album "Girl From The Big City". The original formation dissolved when Barbara Burgio moved to the United States to concentrate on theater work.
In 2005 after a recording collaboration with A Hawk And A Hacksaw (Neutral Milk Hotel and Beirut), Barbara moved to Seattle, WA where she reformed the band transforming the initially folky-blues sound of Luminol into a more theatrical-electrified version by including spoken words and visual art to their live shows.
