LunariaN




LunariaN, with the uppercase letters on the “L” & “N”. Formed in late 2006 and getting seriously into music in 2008. A rock-experimental/alternative/electro-rock band hailing from South Jakarta, Indonesia but taking London as our CHART BASE. 7 songs here are taken from a total of 18 they currently have.








"LunariaN likes to go beyond boundaries set by the industry standard while staying true to rock-n-roll music. They often sail the outer rim of sight and sound but never venture past the ear shot of humans nor their basic instinct to enjoy a catchy tune. Influenced by so many artists ranging from Rammstein, Radiohead to Baroque & classical music, you will experience a new age of rock music as they brand their own trademark style. Unusual breakdowns & progressions, vintage & modern sound mixed with abstract-poetic lyrics which speak loud and true... *love*war*conspiracy theory*anti-social*political* All reflections of their society and life experiences. LunariaN is CUTTING EDGE. REAL ROCK MUSIC." - Willy Clayton of Hooker Studio Productions-Pennsylvania, US

"They may not be exactly local, as this talented four-piece hail from Indonesia, but they are definitely something to look out for. If you’re looking for something fresh and new, but with the underlying features that are ever-present in a classic rock band, you’ve found it. LunariaN have the talent, and they’ve certainly got the tracks, with peculiarly genius hits like ‘Generation in a deadline’ and ‘Xenophobia’ keeping rock and roll alive. However ‘Scream Sonata’ is by far the most impressive track I’ve heard. Opening with a complex classical piano stance, one may compare ‘Scream Sonata’ to something attempted by HIM... until the first riff smashes its way into consciousness. With heavy drums and even heavier axe work, ‘Scream Sonata’ is a track that will have you head-banging like there’s no tomorrow, and you might have to check it’s the same band as before! LunariaN is more than diverse, every track is different and they’ll consistently keep you guessing as to where they’re going and what they’re doing.If I had to make a guess... I'd be surprised if LunariaN hadn't made some sort of name for themselves within a year. They have the drive, the determination, and the raw talent to make it, and I really hope they do. The songs are classics through and through, and if I haven't convinced you, check this one out for yourself, by downloading their EP or listening on Reverb as below." - Lily of

Silent Cities

Having nothing but an acoustic guitar, a cheap banjo and a voice Simon Maddison under his alias; Silent Cities, would come to write and record many songs that were stripped down on approach to the basic principles of finger-picking, harmonies and deep cryptic lyrical themes. Performing and recording around the Liverpool underground Folk scene, Silent Cities aims to offer songs that take influence from the likes of Bon Iver, Patrick Watson, Nick Drake and many other artists from around the world"

Peter Wright


Born and raised in Croydon, South London UK, moved to Warwick in the Midlands UK at the age of 18, married and raised 3 children, 2 daughters and a son, started playing guitar and keyboard at the age of 26, gigged through the 1980's in various bands. In the late 1990's/2000 decided i'd prefer a more laid back approach to musical creation and spent more time recording my own sounds, my daughters joined me as backing vocalists, i guess you could say "it's now a musical family affair". Having been through the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's etc of musical genres i now love to play into any sounds, all i can say is....Bring it on lets rock!

Jacob Stripp

I have been playing since i was 10 years old and have been extremely influenced by guitarists Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Eddie Van Halen. I listen to a variety of music from melodic death metal like 'In Flames' to instrumental music from 'Andy Mckee' and 'Dominic Gaudious'. I try to play various styles of music to get new ideas to develop my own style of playing from funk to hard rock. I love to analyse and read music, i find orchestral music really interesting and love to learn how it was written and what idea's were used from composers such as Haydn and Tippett.

Sheena Bratt




Sheena Bratt: Singer/Songwriter based in the North West UK
Peace, truth and love!

*** ‘My Muse And I’ is now available on ITunes and all the major online stores! ***

Since childhood Sheena Bratt (previously known as Sheena Rowley) has been passionate about the magic of music. She has worked as a Primary Teacher in the UK and has taught all ages in Thailand. She did a Post Graduate Certificate in Education with Modern Foreign Languages, after her BA (Hons) in Law & Philosophy. She sees music as an outlet for a message - of love, fun and global change & harmony.

After tinkering with many instruments, she now mostly plays guitar and sings. Her performance and writing days began at primary school and she's busked, gigged and recorded all over the place (and in other countries), solo and in bands. For herself and for charity. She absolutely loves the whole process, the writing, recording and playing live. She loves many different types of music, all kinds of things in life inspire her to write and her music has been described as folk/country/blues/indie/pop but it doesn't really fall into a set category. She has in the past recorded a 4 track CD, a live album, and recorded individual tracks with many people - including internationally successful DJs and producers Hemstock&Jennings, who she also sang live for at the Foundation in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, a big dance club. She's supported Glen Tilbrook (of Squeeze) and was also featured a few years ago at the Unsigned Showcase at Nantwich's Folk and Roots Festival. Recently, Mojo Records took an interest in her and featured one of her tracks (Fire In Your Eyes) on their webpages, she's also featured on their website as an artist they're working with. She also had a regular slot singing at The Comedy Store before she went travelling. She presented a radio show in Thailand for a while and has performed live on various radio shows, her recorded tracks have been played on various stations too. She's now very excited to be working with a new band called Gilded Rain, with other exciting projects in the pipeline, including her new solo album. She’s also recently put together an 8-piece band to give a  funky sound to her acoustic tracks. Keys, sax, harmonica, bongos, drums, bass, lead and rhythm guitars.

She feels very privileged to soon be working with Rockin Russ (DJ/Producer/Promoter) who's on the Rocked music label. Their first collaborative release will be a track called 'In  Spirit'. He and the Rocked team are 'putting Stoke back on the map' re. the dance music scene; As said by BBC Radio 1 DJ Kutski, who played a quality track of his recently. She'll also be working with James Williams (and other producers on the Airspace label) also in the Rocked crew, who is producing some equally fine dance music. A release will be out soon on the Airspace label, a track called 'With You' by DC, the vocals for which have been co-written between Sheena and the label owner.

She's equally as excited about another new collaboration, a chilled electronic project with the very talented, established dance music producer Robbie Fithon, who is signed to 6193 Recordings.

Last but by no means least, she feels hugely privileged to be being considered to play at Earthday Brasil 2011 Festival, an amazing festival for peace and global change, happening in Rio this year. http://www.earthdaybrasil.com

The Girobabies





What started as a sneaky lunchtime pint and a game of pool in King Tuts, turned into a sacking and a new band was formed. Mayhem followed. The band were met with a healthy dose of joy and excitement, Sometimes confusion and occasionally disgust.

The Giros have since been played on BBC Radio by Paul Heaton (Beautiful South) and supported the likes of Proud Mary, Chris Helme (The Seahorses), Adam Fikec (Babyshambles), Jinx Lennon, Hugh Reed and the Velvet Underpants and much much more.

There has been countless memorable gigs (some great, some not so great) under their belt from sell out nights in Glasgow at venues such as Nice n Sleazys, 13th Note, Pivo Pivo, Buff Club, Ivory Blacks to taking a coachloads on the infamous `Girobus` to Twa Tams (Perth) , Henrys (Edinburgh) and selling out the H.A.C (Irvine)

The debut `album` was called `Social Not Working` and is available on a pay-what-you-like basis from http://thegirobabies.bandcamp.com

That was toured around the country with various festival appearances last year including Rock the Boat (Loch Lomond), Live at Troon, Rockfest (Ayr), Equinox (Dumfries) and various secret locations and warehouse parties

The new album is almost finished and you can hear snippets and rough demos posted on the soundcloud page at http://soundcloud.com/girobabies 


Members:


Mark, Hazy, Nick, Stephen
With support from:
Jess, Robbie, Lou, Pete
and big up to past members:
Martyn, Claude and Lewis
