ANDREA SCHROEDER
POETISCHE SONGS MIT GROSSER STIMME
Die eigenständige Musik von Andrea Schroeder, voller Kraft und Poesie, entstand zum Teil in internationalen Kooperationen, u.a. mit Richard Horowitz (Golden-Globe für die Filmmusik “Der Himmel über der Wüste” von Bernardo Bertulucci) und dem legendären New Yorker Beatpoeten Charles Plymell („The last of the Mocassins“). Die verträumten, teils düsteren Songs mit ihrer dunklen, betörenden Stimme fanden innerhalb kürzester Zeit eine große Zuhörerschaft und internationale Anerkennung.
"Eine ebenso verträumte wie bedrohliche Musik
mit einer fast traurigen Grundhaltung."
Süddeutsche Zeitung
"Manchmal erinnern die Lieder an Velvet Underground,
dann wieder an Patti Smith." TZ
"Schroeder is an exceptional talent"
Bay Area Papers, California
"Elle est belle, elle est sympathique et elle a une voix magnifique
comparable à celle de Patti Smith il y a bien longtemps."
Thierry Benquey
"Viene dalla Germania l’incredibile musica folk-blues di Andrea Schroeder.
Bella e simpatica, possiede una voce magnifica, comparabile a quella della
migliore Patti Smith. La sua voce grave ed evocativa cavalca le ipnotiche
note di “Fly me”. In “My Skin is Like Fire” risuona invece di una sensualità
palpabile, indugiando in passaggi di estrema bellezza."
In Viaggio
The wind blew cold And the leaves began to pack their bags away. The ground with its spongy feel of ice Kept all the rats and mice at bay.
The magik fairy, With his rubber boots and dress Kept the “hounds of baskerville” From creating another, shitty mess.
The cabin created a look of empty darkness As the pumpkin heads began to fall. It looked confusing, abandoned, As if no one was ever home at all.
Deep inside you could hear the pleasant of a healing whisper As the elf woke up And began his attempted movement With “the feeble” of a crawl.
Bilbo sat in his repeated, cornered perch And peered upon the childlike elf. Remembering, Twenty-five years ago, He was peering at himself.
The sweats would come, The slime from deep within, The screaming pain from moving marrow, But, the fucking demon would not win.
The manik, magik fairy, The watcher, The guardian the gate With the help of earth mothers magik Will protect the purity and innocence of the elf And prevent the filling up of the demons Full of empty plate.
With hope and faith Healing time for all the lonely, frightened elves Will never come too late.
... oh ja, nur manchmal. manchmal braucht man es auch zu Zweit ... schön von dir zu hören, dachte schon bist ein bischen sauer... Schönes Wochenende nach München !!! Gruß Uwe
We are proud to announce! Phenom (Producer/Singer &Songwriter) Black Suede will be releasing his self-titled debut album next year some time...The date is undisclosed at the moment....
For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends, For everything Thy goodness sends. HAPPY THANKSGIVING FRIEND...
Shouldn't every day be a celebration?Another day that the Lord has mercifully allowed, in the hope of saving even just a few more souls. How about this so called "Thanksgiving?" Is it about pilgrims and Indians? Turkeys? Family? The word itself reminds me of what I do everyday. Each time I wake up from sleep I give thanks. Each time I come home from anywhere including work or the store I give thanks. Each time I indulge in a meal I give thanks. Each time I receive grace I give thanks. Each time I perceive love I give thanks. In my opinion, mankind needs to really begin to take a long good look around. The world just ain't that complicated. Can technology stop a tornado? Those who know truth should speak it. Samuel Johnson stated this "Unless a man has courage, he has no security for preserving any other virtue." Courage is the basic virtue. Of what use is wisdom if you don't have the courage to act wisely? Of what value is love if you don't have the courage to love?Of what value is truth is you don't have the courage to speak it? Of what consequence is faith without the courage to embrace it? God is real!
