Baseball Gregg is a Pop duo from Stockton (California) and Bologna (Italy). Founders Luca Lovisetto and Samuel Regan met in Bologna, the former a native of the city and the latter a Math student studying abroad. Here, their first songs took shape and were recorded in a flurry of late spring nights, eventually becoming the duo’s self titled debut EP, Baseball Gregg (2014).

Sam returned to California, where in 2015 the two friends met for a second time. Spending the summer afternoons shut inside Sam's childhood bedroom, the duo wrote and recorded their debut LP, Vacation (2016). After publishing Ciao for Now (2016) and Sleep (2018), their second LP, the band started touring extensively through USA and Europe, appearing at SXSW and Iceland Airwaves.

Every month of 2019 Baseball Gregg released a new song: the project slowly unfolded, one song at a time. These 12 singles have been then compiled into Calendar (2020). During the months of Covid-19 lockdown they published Indoors (2020) a 6-tracks collaboration EP with Chicago-based bedroom pop legend Boy Romeo.
Two years later, the duo released Pastimes (2022), an album composed for the first time with the full band all together in one place. Since the arrival of Sam in Italy at the end of 2021, the Italian-Californian band wrote and recorded 20 tracks distributed over three months in as many EPs and then compiled into their fourth LP, «one of the year’s best albums» (Week In Pop).

*Bio*
Kiwi666 è una creatura da cameretta, a cui piace sperimentare con il pop psichedelico anni ‘60, l’estetica slacker/lo-fi slacker rock anni ‘90 - alla Lemonheads, Pavement, Dinosaur JR, fino a Mac Demarco, Kurt Vile - e tutto quello che ci passa di mezzo. Il suo habitat naturale sono i mercatini dell’usato, dove va a caccia di strumenti musicali vintage da riparare e vinili di Neil Young.
All’anagrafe Roberto Andrés Lantadilla, è un cantautore italo-cileno che vive a Bologna dove, parallelamente al suo progetto, suona nella band Big Cream con la quale ha partecipato di recente anche al SXSW. Dopo i primi esperimenti DIY con il pop psichedelico lo-fi di “Wrong Nature” (Selvatico Dischi, 2021) e le prime incursioni in italiano con il singolo “Hawaii” (Collettivo HMCF/Peermusic, 2022), Kiwi ha concluso da poco la sua prima fatica in lingua italiana, “Y”, con la collaborazione artistica di Alessandro Fiori.
