There are several bands & artists with this name. 1. Semiramis were one of the many “one-shot” progressive rock bands of the 70’s in Italy. They only released one album in 1973 called “Dedicato a Frazz”. They may sound a bit like Yes, Genesis or Banco del Mutuo Soccorso. The band consisted of Michele Zarrillo (guitar, vocals), Giampiero Artegiani (guitar), Marcello Reddavide (bass) and Paolo Faenza (drums). They performed for the first time at the Villa Pamphili festival in 1972. Michele Zarrillo has since gone on to a solo career of some renown.

2. Semiramis was born in 30 September 1948 (Istanbul, Turkey )
She is the sister of the famous Turkish Pop music singer Ajda (DIVA) Pekkan. Her music life started in 1968.

Grande Zarro... Ma la cosa ancora più buffa è che, quando è uscito il disco, Rudy Zerbi andava all'asilo!

Don't know, just vote for the band picture. Somebody had messed up the band biography as well, so I included both biographies.
