G.A.S. (Gruppo Autonomo Suonatori) is an Italian rock band. They started in 1997 from an idea by Claudio Barone, who previously played in an 'Orme' tribute band in the early 70's named 'Trio Pop'. The band made his first concert in October 1997 at Theatre Palmaria in La Spezia (Italy) as Garybaldi's opening act with the guitar hero Bambi Fossati. After a few line-up changes, from the early 2000s onwards, the band started playing many gigs with the current band: Claudio Barone (bass, lead vocals, mandolin), Simone Galleni (guitar, bass), Andrea Imparato (sax, flute), Valter Bono (drums), Thomas Cozzani (synths), Andrea Foce (piano, flute).
