My name is Annalie. It is Swedish for "graceful meadow" but I am neither. I make up songs and then I sing them. Sometimes I do it alone and other times there are musical men who come along and paint on the scenery. They call this a band but it's more like surfing. Only a little less wet. We made an album together, called "The Anomaly Project;" you can buy it if you like. Or come and see me play. Or both. It's music, anyway, if you like that sort of thing: me on the piano, them on stringed things and batterable toys. Technically you might call it alternative pop, although alternative to what I'm not sure. Awkward silences perhaps. Doing the washing up, sticking your hand in a bunsen burner - any of those.
Hope all is well in the world of you. I wish you all the best to make good things happen. If you don't know already, The XY (Electro funk/pop) are releasing flight in sight on November the 16th. Slowly but surely the people are starting to take note of the X Why movement. Feel free to watch the video and comment.
Ok, sounds good Why don't you sign up to my mailing list and then you can message me when a gig comes up that you'd like to play at and we'll see what we can do :)
