Description: A power surge of infectious melodies, fragmented time changes, lilting vocal counter harmonies, and anthemic, climbing soundscapes. Mathy, noisey, dancey, rocky.
"A striking ball of energy. As guitars slash and burn Grudzen and Angel's dual vocals rage and teeter on the edge of convention with melody and harmonic exuberance to spare." Frank Valish, DIW Magazine
"To say a band has promise is to expect, at some point, nothing short of a masterpiece.
"If You're Feeling Sinister". "Nevermind". "One Beat". And..."Tartufi's Greatest Hits"? It could happen." Tooth & Nail Online Music
Tartufi springboards from the queer fantastic streets of San Francisco playing such local venues as Cafe Du Nord, Bottom of The Hill, El Rio, Hemlock Tavern, The Eagle Tavern, and as featured guests on KZSU Stanford, KALX UC Berkeley, and KDVS UC Davis Radio. SF Bay Guardian voted Tartufi one of the Top 10 local live shows in San Francisco.
The current line-up consists of Simone Grudzen, Lynne Angel and Brian Gorman. Songwriting duties are shared by Simone and Lynne, with frequent switching between guitar, bass, and vocals. Simone started Tartufi in Summer 2001. Soon after attending Tartufi's first show, Lynne started playing with Tartufi. Simone and Lynne have played music for the past 3 1/2 years. Tartufi arrived at the rhythmic prowess of Brian Gorman in Spring 2004. An unidentified source reports that Brian has "completed the puzzle that is Tartufi".
"In a world - or at least a city - of costume bands, nightmare-streaked new wave, and sweaty, naked, sexually assaultive backup dancers, the rock 'n' roll trio known as Tartufi stand up for certain classic traditions, like verse-chorus-verse, infectious melodies.
Lynn Rappaport, San Francisco Bay Gaurdian.
