IMPERIAL JADE is a rock band born in the Maresme province, in Barcelona in 2012 by five young friends and rock and roll lovers. The band is formed by Francesc López (Drums), Alex PaÃ±ero (guitar), Arnau Ventura (voice), Hugo Nubiola (guitar/keyboard), Ricard Turró (bass) and it is characterized by its sound that bring us back to the times where rock music ruled the world: the 70's. In November 2015 the band released their first record Please Welcome Imperial Jadewhich was acclaimed for the specialized press, setting it on numerous top lists of best releases of the year. Throughout 2016 IMPERIAL JADE toured all through Spain presenting the album by giving numerous gigs booked by themselves, what brought them to open for the Californian band RIVAL SONS in Barcelona and the Swedish EUROPE in their two concerts given in Madrid and Barcelona among other great bands such as Ten Years After or Michael Monroe. In 2017 the band decides to bet hard on the recording of two new singles in analog tape at Music Lan Studios, then mixed in Nashville, USA by sound engineer John Netti: (RIVAL SONS, EUROPE, BLACK STONE CHERRY, BON JOVI!) and mastered at The Room Studio by Gorka Dresbaj. All through the year, IMPERIAL JADE keeps playing gigs at different venues and appears for the first time live on TV at Los conciertos de Radio 3 of RTVE (Spanish TV channel), also playing in the main stage of Rock Fest BCN sharing stage with bands like AEROSMITH, DEEP PURPLE, AIRBORNE or ALICE COOPER, heading numerous small festivals through Spain and playing in renowned festivals such as the Afro-american music festival Enclave de Agua being the first hard-rock proposal of the festival in its ten editions. Currently the band is setting up new material for their upcoming album, that is planned to be released at 2018, and starting up the last stage of their "Please Welcome Tour" on which they will go throughout the country once more.
