Press Reviews
"Callian's Dream, a Washington, DC area based band, is bursting upon the music scene with their exceptional songwriting and personalized versions of cover songs.Named after lead vocalist/bassist Meagan Lane's faithful cat and a medieval village in southern France, Callian's Dream new CD "Havre De Grace" features such songs as guitarist Davy Shannon's "Near Dark Jenny". Based on the movie "Near Dark" a cult classic story of modern day vampires, it was written for the actress Jenny Wright who played Mae the vampire in the film.. Jenny seemed to have disappeared from the public eye, a clip of the song was placed on The 'Near Dark" movie website where Jenny and her mom heard the clip and emailed the band! Lynette Brawer adds the inspiration " The Power Within" and the rocker "We're In Motion".. Next comes the beautiful flute filled ballad "A Prayer for Rikki" and the folky "Rikki's Song (Havre De Grace Girl) Davy wrote for his special friend Rikki.. The album finishes up with "Miriam (12 Step Friend) and the popular theme song of the CD "Havre De Grace" - a live acoustic version of the song written in tribute to the beautiful little town in Maryland where The Susquehannah River meets The Chesapeake Bay..These songs and others make Callian's Dream well worth the listen- catch these guys in person if you ever get a chance and put their album on your list of "must hear". Music for the mind and body!" -----SEANACHIE STREET |
