Derek Singleton is a man of change and contradictions. He was brought up in Texas but now lives in Germany. He fronts a Rock’n’Roll band called the TriSonics, but also has a penchant for writing melancholy folk songs. Though fiercely independent, he is a devoted family man. He used to have a job. Now he performs music.
The music is slow and gentle while the stories tell of constant motion and radical change. The songs of longing and sorrow; of conviction and love are appropriately delivered using vocals and guitar only, although the recurring theme of space travel could lead you to suspect other musical styles.
In its pensive tone, Horizon is a little reminiscent of Jeff Buckley, but it never plunges to the depths of despair, pointing instead to the hope of redemption that lies somewhere just beyond sight …somewhere out on the horizon.

Hi Derek Du alte Schateke! Wird mal wieder Zeit. Ich denke, ich kann mir einrichten, zu Deinem nächsten Auftritt im Kilian's vorbeizuschauen. Mich kotzt gerade ziemlich an, daß Du auf dem Stustaculum warst, weil da wäre ich gerne hingegangen, mußte aber die letzten vier Tage Schichten von kranken Kollegen übernehmen. Wäre toll gewesen, Dich dort zu hören. Shit. Aber da kann man nichts machen. Bis bald mal und Grüße an den Rest der Truppe. Benni
Hey Derek, thanks for accepting, you sure have some great tunes here! I actually didn't recognize you from the TriSonic page, lol! If you don't mind I'll message you with some questions about recording, studios and stuff ... ! Thanks & best, Niels.
