Hailing from the south-east neighborhood of Rome, Italy,
Plutonium Baby formed in 2010 by Black Guitarra, former member of all-female garage-punk band Motorama and Fil Sharp and Feith Da Grave, from the punk-wave Cactus.
In 2018 Alessio Trebbia (Alieni/Mad Rollers) joined the band
and in 2023 Lor3nk becomes Plutonium fifth Baby.
A guitar, a synth, drums and a bunch of reverb and distortion
on vocals: Jay Reatard shouting at Suicide and the Rezillos chewing the B-52’s. Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to have some peace, you’re on the wrong track!
Plutonium Baby first 7” is a split with Margaret Doll Rod (of the Demolition Doll Rods fame). It was released by Spanish label
Ghost Highway in 2011.

Kinda Garage-Psych-Punk with a touch of Power Pop!
In 2020 Plutonium Baby and Freddie Williams (aka Federico Guglielmi) published “You Said I’d Never Make It”, a 7” tribute to four Californian punk bands from the 70’s.
In the meantime some singles come out, including "Run Run Run" on "Rock These Ancient Ruins" compilation (2020 Area Pirata / Surfin' KI Records) and "Dougie Dougie" on Tribal Cabaret n. 07 "Lies and Bites" tape compilation.
