Rome 56
After conquering NYC's new wave scene with The Shirts at CBGB, Arthur Lamonica could have coasted on laurels—instead, he found his perfect musical partner in wife Kathleen Lamonica and created something better. Rome 56 represents the kind of creative partnership that happens when seasoned chops meet fresh inspiration, crafting songs that feel both timeless and urgently contemporary. Their sound bridges Arthur's downtown credentials with sophisticated songcraft drawing from power pop, roots rock, and new wave without being trapped by any single genre. Think Like A Key Music's release of Days Of Carefree Living (2022) introduced a band that made nostalgia feel like discovery, Paradise Is Free (2024) confirmed their mastery of the perfectly crafted hook, and 2025's Pony Tales proves they're nowhere near running out of great songs. Rome 56 reminds us that sometimes the most exciting new bands are built on decades of knowing exactly what great music should sound like. Experience sounds better when it's this inspired.
