Her story:

Alessia starts playing guitar at the age of 17.
After a first year of classic guitar lessons, other different influences,
such as IRON MAIDEN, VAN HALEN, METALLICA, MEGADETH, JUDAS PRIEST, PANTERA, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN
and CACOPHONY, start growing in her heart and move her always closer to the electric guitar,
until she decides learning it, at the Musical Academy of Bergamo.
She starts playing "live" as a special-guest in a tribute-band from Lombardia dedicated to YNGWIE MALMSTEEN
and also by cooperating with several different metal bands from her hometown.
In 2007, she decides to create a tribute-band to MEGADETH, called TAKE NO PRISONERS,
in activity since 3 years, a special band with whom she establishes also a strong friendship, beside music.
Now, thanks to her, AXTRA can close better their decennary history,
by going back at least one last time to play on the stages which still are impressed in our hearts,
demonstrating also that, between competing tribute-bands,
it's not strictly necessary to run only a fierce agonism.
Our deepest thanks to TAKE NO PRISONERS.
