Strange Kind of Women
There is a terrific cover band out in Italy which also happens to be an all-girl band. They are fittingly called Strange Kind of Women.
Ian Paice did a guest gig with them in March 2019 and now is giving them a shoutout on his DrumTribe channel:
Strange Kind of Women are:
Alteria – vocals
Eliana Cargneluttie – guitars
Paola Zadra – bass
Margherita Gruden – keyboards
Paola Caridi – drums
Check out their complete show from July 20th 2019 at Haus Eifgen Wermelskirchen in Germany streaming here. And support the musicians.
Thanks to andreas leutgeb for the heads up. Photo: Aleksandra Pruenner.

June 24th, 2020 at 10:05Ian Gillan lives and she is Italian.
June 25th, 2020 at 00:43And she can do DC.
The others all have the chops too.
I have been following these amazing ladies for over a year now. They are without doubt the best thing to happen in the Deep Purple universe for a long, long time. I cant wait to see them live. Hope they come to the UK next year 🙂
June 25th, 2020 at 09:25Perhaps the best Deep Purple tribute band I’ve ever seen.
June 25th, 2020 at 17:22Great band , have watched there videos , they are all really good at there various instruments , if I was in Europe and they were playing I would go out of my way to see them , in Europe next summer , might arrange my itinerary so I can check them out , from Australia Deep Purple fan over 50 years.
June 26th, 2020 at 06:55absolutely awesome…what does it say when an all female tribute band mostly 40 years younger than most of dp is inspired to play their music… So happy to know that their music is touching people the same way it did for me so many years ago
June 27th, 2020 at 23:21They make the songs sound fresh. I have been watching their videos on YouTube for a month or so. They are really good.
June 29th, 2020 at 02:51I’ve seen them twice last year. They are absolutely amazing.
July 3rd, 2020 at 13:27They really are rather good , I have been watching their postings for a while now. Be good to see them in the UK one day .
July 3rd, 2020 at 16:17Singer is terrible!
July 7th, 2020 at 13:45Just found out about this band, Holy Moses, they kick ass. Check out Black Sabbitch and the Iron Maidens….all of them kill the “boy’s club” mentality
September 17th, 2020 at 09:48Great band perfect execution of perfect strangers.
February 21st, 2021 at 06:53I hope they come to Australia some day because I will be there to see them.
Hello from France,
to duplicate Deep Purple would be quite a job ! SKOW have the good idea to make the songs theirs. they give it a new wind, twist, light (call it what you want) that makes you…search for the next video !
May 23rd, 2021 at 19:59the 5 musicians are very good and dynamic, giving a breath of fresh air to their live show : bravo !
note : I do recommand the albums made by Eliana Cargnelutti : they groove !
It’s beautiful and very good band ! I love them !
August 30th, 2021 at 10:12Excellent!!
October 17th, 2021 at 15:24These girls are insanely good. They have it down BIG TIME. LOVE THEM 🥰
March 2nd, 2022 at 17:01This band is VERY VERY GOOD !! I’d like to bring them to U.S.A. !
