Artist History
Hospital Sessions marks the debut of Lucerne, Switzerland's Orangedrive. Over two years in the making, Hospital Sessions is an addictive collection of sincere songs crafted with charming vocal melodies, fuzzy guitar effects, and sputtering shimmied rhythms.Orangedrive started four years ago by singer/guitarist/songwriter Michael Mathis, who spend the early and mid 90's in a variety of Garage and Indie bands including a stint as a touring guitarist in Sportsguitar (Matador Records). Orangedrive went through a few lineup changes (Michael recorded Hospital Sessions with a variety of musicians) before finding guitarist Roland Saum, a founding member and integral element of Sportsguitar, and Christop Copp. Live, Roland's ability to sprinkle clangy, buzzy guitar lines and atmospheric noise over Michael's gorgeous melodies is an interesting and delectable combination. Hospital Sessions is nine songs that are instantly appealing and filled with such a sense of wonderment that the listener is instantly drawn into them. Orangedrive symbolizes a refreshing change in the world of indie pop. They play pop music like only the Europeans can: smooth, dreamy, and ultra-catchy. |
