Alice Lane Pandini
Rock soul Alice is a bass player with Italian origins. Her life revolves around the world of music: by day she works
in a bass and guitar shop in Chiasso and by night she plays in various rock and metal groups.

Rock soul

She initially encountered the electric bass guitar when she was about 13,
during one of her first music lessons at middle school.
Her teacher made sure that each of his pupils found the instrument
that was right for them and Alice, perhaps also inspired
by the songs of her favourite group at that time,
Red Hot Chili Peppers, was obviously a bass guitar girl!

Never forget your dreams,
they're the thing that will
make you free.

The natural evolution of things should have seen her then progress to music school, but destiny took her to university and a degree in foreign languages. However, as everyone knows, music is something you can just give up and so Alice continued to follow this passion of hers, and took private bass lessons while she was studying. In 2009 she had her first experience in a band that played Alternative Metal. She played every weekend, without a manager or an agency, personally dealing with all the different aspects involved, from finding dates to advertising, in a learning curve that helped Alice to become what she is today. After a few years, the group split up, but she continued to work independently, playing with other bands in the years that followed. 2017 was the turnaround year. A music management agency called Alice with a proposal to take part in an all-female rock project called Killin’ Baudelaire. Alice accepted immediately and this was the start of a new adventure that proved to be one of her most important collaborations, allowing her to play on top-level stages, travel on tour in Europe and the UK and to start working with fashion brands. Following various changes in line-up and inevitable artistic and musical growth, this group has today decided to change its name to Hand Of Juno and pursue an independent career. Alice is also a founding member or session player with other ongoing musical projects that will be revealed before the end of 2021. The musical genre that best represents Alice, in all its forms and contaminations, is metal, but she has always listened a little of everything in order to compose and get a broad vision of what is around her, taking inspiration and finding beauty in many other kinds of music. Her distinctive style, approach and rock spirit fully represent the bold revolutionary attitude that A.S.98 puts into its collections.
