    Artist description
    Founded in 1993, we grew from 3 to 5, now combining our "roots" with modern styles of expression. We are not in our twenties anymore, but not as old as some of our heros. We grew up and live at the coast of the Baltic Sea in Northern Germany. This goes into the music. And it's another good reason for our bandname.
    Music Style
    Experimental guitar-piano-rock-pop with world- and psychedelic elements. Female voice
    Musical Influences
    Peter Gabriel, Jeff Buckley, The Boomers, Roger Hodgson, Joni Mitchell, Camel, Baby Animals, John Mellencamp
    Similar Artists
    Very difficult. Maybe a mixture of our musical influences.
    Artist History
    In the beginning, in 1993, we played blues and folk, mainly coverversions and interpretations of songs of the 60s and early 70s. But although we and our fans love this particular time of music-history, we looked for a way to create something new. So we changed from acoustic music with 2 western-guitars and percussion to a full set with drums, e- and a-guitar, bass and piano.
