The Desert Plaza

THE DESERT PLAZA are a London alt-rock band blending warm, arena-sized hooks with introspective songwriting. Influenced by Catfish & The Bottlemen and The Killers, the four-piece formed in 2023 and features vocalist Luca Zanni, guitarist Jack Edwards, bassist Luke Allatt, and drummer Max Rhead.

The band came together after Luca moved from Modena, Italy, chasing his dream of starting a band. From late-nights busking to honing a bold, distinctive sound, THE DESERT PLAZA grew out of a shared passion for creating something original.

Their debut EP 'To Hell With Love' is set for release in early 2026.
