History
When Sarah and Sal met guitar player Tommy Cai (Chinese) and drummer Angelo Merendino (Italian) after posting an add on Craigslist, they had a real melting pot of a band. It was exciting and in 2008 “Die Pretty” the Alt/Punk band was born.
Their first album “Bittersweet” was picked up by an indie label Unconform Records, out of Frankfurt Germany in 2009. Having a debut record out in Europe was thrilling; it quickly sold 900 copies before the label sadly folded. They continued to write songs, using New York City as their inspiration. Living in the city certainly provided a canvas of life experiences to work with. With appearances on NY INK (TLC 2012) and Modeling assignments for INKED Mag (2011), living the daily grind, working day jobs and rehearsing at night, “Die Pretty” became thick skinned. They played the top live venues in NYC regularly…including Arlene’s Grocery and Gramercy Theatre to enthusiastic fans and it was inspiring.
