A*Star is a alternative project that formed in Chicago, IL (US) in January 2012 by Perry Pelonero and Kim Welsh. Perry Pelonero and Kim Welsh are a music duo and couple who have been working together for five years. They are currently writing for their A*Star project, which is named after their daughter Ada. Perry enjoyed success with his Boston shoegaze band Skylight in the early 1990’s. He and guitarist Brent Martino brought it back in 2007 and added Kim on vocals. In 2008, Perry and Kim formed the band bliss.city.east and Eric D’Asto joined soon after. In 2010, Perry and Kim partnered with Dean Garcia (of Curve) and released an EP as Morpheme. Perry also writes and plays guitar for Garcia’s SPC ECO project. They have provided guest production and music tracks for many bands across the globe. Kim and Perry own an instructional video production company in Chicago, where they live with their family." -- Official Bio from the A*Star Bancamp (used with permission) "First we were in Skylight. Then we made bliss.city.east. Then we we made a baby called Ada Star. Then we were in Morpheme. Then we worked on a bunch of other projects together and separately (SPC ECO, Beijing Tangs, etc.)" -- Kim Welsh & Perry Pelonero Official Sites: http://astarmusic.bandcamp.com https://facebook.com/AStarBand/ https://twitter.com/AStarBand/ http://youtube.com/user/AStarmusic12 Edited by Neferast on behalf of A*Star; 31 July 2012 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL.
