Bedtime for Charlie is currently a three-piece punk rock band based in Rome, Italy. Gaining their influences from the american melodic hardcore scene, consisting in bands such as NOFX, Lagwagon, Good Riddance, No Use For A Name and Bad Religion. Giacomo (bass and vocals) and Domenico (drums) started the band in their early teens back in 2001, along with other young friends. The rough and immature sound of the beginnings went on gaining consistance with time, until the line up found its stability in 2005 with the entry of Alessio (guitar), intersecting guitar riffs with now former member and guitarist Sandro; the band records an EP with six songs, Dog Tricks, which actually never sees the light of day, and starts digging its way through the crowded and variegated italian punk-hardcore scene. 2007 is the year of Winning is for Losers, first official record, which exports the band out of its country, with help from the Internet and word spreading only: the 14 tracks which the album is composed of are in fact totally self recorded and self produced. The record is amazingly appreciated in the underground scene, and the band leaves shortly after for a long european tour with town mates Jet Market; the tour touches countries such as Ukraine, Russian Federation, Belarus, Germany, France, Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, not long before the tour, guitarist Sandro decides to quit the band, due to personal reasons, leaving the three piece line up until present day. In late 2008 Bedtime for Charlie record their second official studio album, It Ain't About The Music; this record is highly more mature than the previous ones, and comes along with a killing production and songwriting.

The release date for Europe (Wynona Records) and Japan (Milestone Sounds) was set for February 6th, 2009. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL..
