Music supplied by MusicAlley Group - The Dials Track 1 - Dead Beat Get the Cd from CDBaby Bio A few months, a drummer, and a keyboardist later, Crawford and Gran found themselves with half of the original line-up, but a quickly growing loyal fan base surrounding them. So with determination fueling their fire, they hit the pavement and recruited friend and major Dials fan Emily Dennison. Trading in her ivories for a farfisa, Dennison brought her unique ‘Beethoven-gone-Devo' style to their sound. With the addition of a new drummer almost exactly at the same time, the band was back in action and recorded and released their Sick Times EP that winter 2003. Not only did the local press praise the EP, but national media also took notice of the Dials.

Patricia Vonne
Patricia Vonne Info Vonne is able to assert her vibrant personality within a diversity of musical and thematic modes offering "something for everyone" thanks to a lifelong immersion within a universe of music. One of 10 offspring of a drummer father of Mexican descent and a singing and guitar playing Spanish mother, she grew up in a household where "music was always a part of our lives." Her mother would quell the brood and instill them with a harmonic sense by leading them in Spanish folk songs from an early age, while also treating them to afternoons at the cinema enjoying MGM and Broadway musicals. By her early teens, Vonne was also enjoying musical input from the various sounds and styles found within her siblings' record collections. But it was artists with a particularly Texan mix such as Lone Star heroes Stevie Ray Vaughan and Joe Ely that captured her imagination. After attending her first concert by Chris Isaak sideman Johnny Reno and his Sax Maniacs, Vonne was captured by the allure of performing onstage. Then when one of her brothers brought home an album by Chicano new wave rockers The Cruzados, she discovered a modern style that reflected her identity. " They sang in English and Spanish, which made us proud of our heritage," she recalls. Moving to New York City to pursue her creative ambitions, Vonne landed a gig singing and then also playing bass in Mick & The Maelstroms, a hard-working pop-rock band on the Big Apple club circuit. By 1996, she had the confidence in her abilities to start penning songs that reflected her own musical and cultural experiences, often collaborating with her then boyfriend and now husband, Robert LaRoche from the Virgin recording act The Sighs. Hooking up with lead guitarist Kirk Brewster, a Texas transplant from the legendary Dallas band The Werewolves, Vonne formed a band that could deliver her Lone Star style with New York City intensity.

Music spplied by MusicAlley Group - The Banana Sessions Track 1 - a little share Info Once upon a time there was a band. Before that, there were merely five musical folk with a shared love of fruit, tea, fun and a jaunty tune, but the fates and these shared loves brought them together. In time, ideas were scribbled, the kettle worked almost as hard as their strange musical minds, many curvy yellow fruits were eaten, and the first songs were born. These were the Banana Sessions, and so it began… The Banana Sessions sing songs of sunshine, caterpillars, brews, Buckfast, pirates and stranger encounters, plus a few unconventional interpretations of classics too (one crowd favourite being 90s techno classic No Limit by 2Unlimited). Their style is not one easily described, but they have been described in their time as folky, proggy, breezy, bouncy, jazzy, quirky, and ‘unashamedly good fun’. Whatever genre they may be, the band have rapidly gained a reputation as purveyors of quality musicianship with equal quantities of humour in Edinburgh and beyond. |
