Gli UMMO nascono nel dicembre del 2012 da un'idea del cantante e compositore Cristiano Romanelli: scrivere canzoni che prendessero spunto da vari generi musicali miscelandoli tra loro. Ad accompagnarlo in questo folle esperimento tre musicisti e amici: alla batteria Federico Di Simone, al basso Gregory Coniglio e alla chitarra Cristian Sorrenti. Il 25 dicembre 2014 esce il primo album omonimo che segna anche l'inizio del CONTACT TOUR 2015 che li ha vede protagonisti in piazze e live club italiani. Grazie al successo dei primi due singoli "DESTINO" e "MALINCONIA", nel Gennaio 2016 arriva nelle radio il terzo singolo della band "SINDROME". Nel 2016 parte anche il MANICOMIO TOUR e vengono scelti per l'apertura ufficiale dei concerti del rocker italiano Pino Scotto con i Rocky Horror. A Novembre del 2016 inizia una collaborazione artistica con il Direttore d'orchestra Maria Gabriella Ciaffarini e l'Ensamble orchestrale Sinergie D'arte. I brani degli UMMO vengono rivisitati in chiave classica durante un'importante rassegna barocca "Barock". Questo esperimento ha dato vita ad un progetto più grande: 413.44 MHZ TOUR.

A Maggio del 2017 gli Ummo vengono selezionati per la finale della trentesima edizione di Sanremo Rock. A luglio 2017 esce il quarto singolo "CONSUMAMI". A settembre 2017 il gruppo entra nel Busker Studio a Reggio Emilia (Ligabue-Rio-Emma Marrone-Blastema-Cristiano De Andrè e molti altri) per registrare il secondo album dalle sonorità rock più anni novanta, ma senza rinnegare quella vena elettronica che li ha sempre caratterizzati. A Gennaio 2018 è iniziato il PLASTICA TOUR che ha visto la band ancora in giro per lo stivale! All'inizio di luglio esce il singolo "PLASTICA". A Settembre e Ottobre 2018 gli Ummo partono per il loro primo tour europeo che li ha visti protagonisti in dieci date tra Austria, Slovacchia, Repubblica Ceca, Ungheria e Polonia.
