The ladies of Tribella do not like to waste time. The trio emerged quickly from the ashes of previous, early-fated projects. Perhaps fortified by their shared near-death experiences, the contending supa-group realized right away they produced music that far exceeded any previous efforts. As a united team, they replaced their dwarf star ambitions with star sites residing within the Perseus Arm and beyond.

Within the decade, Tribella hopes to sell more singles than Elton John’s, “Candle in the Wind,” and more albums than The Eagles “Their Greatest Hits (vol. 1).” They will concentrate their efforts on producing a video more disturbing than NIN’s “Closer,” with better dancing than Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” and with more cleverly choreographed treadmill routines than OK Go’s “Here It Goes Again.”

In the meantime, Tribella is finishing their first EP, featuring 6 original songs set for release in January 2009. Stay tuned.
