Everything about Violet Edge is about the song. John writes bass lines that carry the song, more in the vein of a guitar riff.
*************************
That allows Allen the freedom of intense guitar sounds and upper melodies that have to be heard and not explained.
*************************
Greg has an orchestrators ear and aggressively drums what the song and the groove needs, adding spice with percussion and also contributing lyrics and melodies.
*************************
Christina writes from the emotions that the new song is expressing, and her lyrics end up as a personal release.
*************************
John has the wicked sense of humor in the group. He also keeps the band in suspense, arriving at shows 15 minutes before curtain. Then he cooly sets up his bass gear and he's ready to play.
*************************
Allen is the type of guitarist that must start plugging in gear about noontime to be ready for a show. But the wall of sound he builds will surround you for days. A recording engineer and producer, he is now mixing the upcoming Violet Edge CD Killing Time, having created Space Recording Studio in the process.
*************************
Greg claims that he's "just the drummer", but that's true only if drumming includes songwriting, arranging, producing and engineering. His drumming is very powerful and he's fantastic to watch play live.
*************************
Friends who have known Christina for years are still amazed to see her transformation when singing. "Often people underestimate me because I am so quiet in daily life, and I let them. It makes it all the more fun to surprise them later."
NOTE: Thank you for everyone's great comments. It means a lot for us to read them..-Violet Edge |
