  • Bio

    E-Grand, forged his creativity in the indie pop-rock movement of the '90s. He is a writer and composer whose natural reserve bubbles over in the creation of a universe where his ambivalent sensitivity, experience and fertile fever tangle up together into the E-grand brand. In the spirit of pop's modern day heros – whose greatness is their simplicity and whose pride is free of overweening arrogance – his only arms are his taste for adversity, his solid achorage in the everyday life that is all of ours, and an idealistic realism which, in its ordinary transparency, enables him to make out what may yet be the better paths of a golden future. .. Worth trying for! .... Fleeing any little labelled boxes, E-grand stands as a masterly, inexhaustible source drawing on the ardor of guitars and the melancholy of harmony with sometimes a lyrically plaintive despair and sometimes an outrageously inciscive efficiency. .... This first solo album – recorded and performed mainly by E-grand, produced by E-grand and Mathea, and mastered at Pierce House, London – is a true masterstroke. Conceived by the recombination of all of the possible variations on a personal musical signature, E-grand's authenticity is drawn from the wellsprings of pop, vintage rock and electric folk music. The living proof of a vibrant and pure timeless pop-based song-writing, with a profusion of chiming guitars sealed together in impeccable arrangements, psychadelic folk overtones and emotionally charged vocals. .... Reciting dreamworld scenes of life, E-Grand carries us into his gloomy world , where ideals run up against leaden reality, and, all too often, throbbing nostalgia stands in the way of any view of the future. Yet, when luck is out and sorrow looms, the soul in its grief (which it was not born to remain in) reacts by a spontaneous enhancement of its virginal light-heartedness, and a searing romantic yearning. .... .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
