Featuring: Meena Cryle - vocals Chris Fillmore - guitar Joris Hendrik - bass Bernhard Egger - drums Extract from the band website: Meena: I started singing at the age of three, learned playin´ guitar when I was eight and I wrote my first songs when I was ten. When I was sixteen I left home, I took my guitar and travelled around the world and played my songs at the Lake Michigan in Illinois, in the train through Greece, in the streets of Chimoio Mosambik, in the lanes of Mexico City, in the center of New Dheli, down south in Sicily Italy and back home on top of the Austrian mountains. Freedom for me is not just a word, it´s a gift which comes to you when you are willing to leave your ego and your comfort zone behind – and so I did. The great thing about music for me is the mergence between musician and audience, it´s a sensitiv thing going on when a tone, wether it´s sung or played, connects a group of people and creates one big bullet of energy. The closest way to be with someone is singing a song or dance with somebody. So every concert, every evening is challenging me trying to explain myself and get my inside out, hoping somebody is feeling the same I do, because then we both know, we´re not alone. I do not write or read notes, I can see music in different colours and forms and symbols and I learn because I listen. Every noise becomes a melody in my head and creates a certain rhythm, the whole live is music if we allow ourself to be the instrument. Chris: together with Meena – the foundation of the band, inspired by Elvis Presley, Stevie Ray Vaughan or John Lee Hooker. Behind his cool, appearance, he´s a tasteful and elegant guitar player, totally focused on the music. Links: http://www.meenacryle.com/ http://www.debosuil.nl/
