The Cloverhearts
The Cloverhearts are a Sydney-based Celtic punk group. They form around Australian vocalist and songwriter Sam Cooper and Italian tin-whistle and bagpipe player Chiara de Sio, who first meet at a Rumjacks show in Manhattan, New York. De Sio comes to the project after leaving her former band, The Clan.
The band’s lineup also includes guitarist JJ Bassi, bassist Stefano “Cione” Becce and drummer Christian Amendolara. Their music draws on catchy melodies, heavy drumming, tin whistle lines and an energetic live sound, and it sits across Celtic punk, punk, folk punk and folk.
The group describes itself through a mix of references to false friends, temporary sobriety, lovable junkies and poor public transport, but its core identity is a Celtic punk act built around melody, rhythm and live performance.
