Plunkett... an English boy and an Italian girl. Both Ian and Lara had a love for music from a very early age. Lara chose the piano, Ian the guitar. After studying music (theory, midi, harmony and sound engineering) at Rome, Lara became a partner and A&R of Dune Records, an independent Italian label. Ian had always played in bands and after finally finding like minded musicians the band ‘Pukromo' was born. In late 1999 Pukromo signed to Dune records recording their debut album ‘Promise Me Kill Me' during 2000. Life’s funny sometimes and although the label and band folded, Ian and Lara got together. Frustrated by the mechanisms and ties of the music biz and tired of their ‘electronic’ past, they focused on their emotions, on themselves. Without any thought or the pressure of trying be anything other than that. Themselves. With a desire to only write songs and move people, Plunkett choose to remain independent artists and work outside of the mainstream music business. Their first album '14 Days' (2006) gave them an unexpected critic and listener's acclaim through the internet. In 2008 the duo released their second album 'Folk Songs' defined by Plunkett as 'folk songs for the 21st Century'.
