Sounds LikeIt was once said that I sounded like Glen Campbell, but more recently like James Taylor. Actually it's more like a bass baritone on helium, or maybe a goldfish singing under water, but at the end of the day I'm just me. I hope that's OK with you.

NEWS

*NOW ON iTunes - Amazon - Napster -Rhapsody*

Hot Off The Press is that Goodbye Lover, Hello Friend was No5 in Ireland last week, having topped the charts there before with the same song. Groovey!

Old news now is that Goodbye Lover, Hello Friend was No4 in Ireland, having topped the charts there last September with the same song. Since the latter half of 2007, I have seen songs from the album on the charts somewhere, mostly in Europe and fairly continuously too which is a wonderful feeling. I should also mention that the album was a finalist for Album of the Year in the Victorian Country Music Awards 2008. Yes I am very happy with that.

Well last year was certainly a great year! After the release of my Soundboard album early in the year I have had 18 Top 10s in twelve European countries including my first No1 in Ireland with Goodbye Lover, Hello Friend. There were four different songs to reach Top 10 and something is telling me to pick up my pen and start writing again and perhaps tour Scandinavia.

BIOGRAPHY

I was born at a very early age in Melbourne, Australia. I first played guitar at the age of nine, playing a small bodied acoustic that my parents gave me for my birthday. Nothing much happened until The Beatles came along redefining the music that had been the inspiration for my learning. Until this, inspiration had come from the Everly Brothers, Marty Robbins and Guy Mitchell. As a result of the new generation of music, school-work took a back seat and found playing music became more appealing. Playing in a school band called The Phables did nothing to dampen my enthusiasm. I wanted more.

My more serious playing days started in 1969 in a band called 'FUZZ' appearing on Television's 'Uptight' show and playing the dance halls alongside bands such as the 'Master's Apprentices' and 'The Valentines', with Bon Scott in venues such as Festival Hall. A year or so later I joined a band called 'LIVE SOUND DIMENSION', a recording and cabaret act that occasionally doubled as a backing band for many floorshow acts. The band was also sought for recording sessions for other artists because of their harmony abilities. I had some fun dabbling in acting working on the television series Prisoner and The Sullivans, which became international successes. I also appeared as an extra in the movie Thirst during c1979. It was a 'horror' movie which seemed appropriate.

In 1979 I joined the band STONEY CREEK. The band carved a name for itself on Australia's country music circuit, head lining at most of the major music festivals in the eastern states. The band leaned heavily on their harmonizing abilities and were often called upon as a back up band for solo artists, such as the legendary Jimmy Little, Patsy Riggir, Col Elliott and Alison Durban. Because of the band's backing abilities they were also chosen as the support band for Tom T. Hall and Diana Trask. We were also the backing band for the contestants in the Tamworth Starmaker Talent Quest in 1981- 1982, an event that was to launch the careers of several of today's stars, including Lee Kernaghan and Keith Urban. The band won a talent quest at the famed Wandong Country Music Festival and Most Popular Vocal Band at the FEIP Southern Hemisphere awards in 1983 and 1984. It was felt that each member should be a multi-instrumentalist, so in addition to guitar I learned to play bass and banjo.

During this period I was writing more songs than Stoney Creek could use, so I entered the New Zealand Gold Guitar Awards winning Best Composition with Lady Right and also fourth prize for Goodbye Lover, Hello Friend.

In 2001 I recorded an album with ex-Stoney Creek member Steve Cross. It was produced by another ex-Creek member Charlie Kneale and scored radio air-play in Malta and the Channel Islands.

January 2006 saw the independent release of a four song EP which was played on radio throughout Australia and Europe while I finished off the rest of my Soundboard album.

Soundboard is now released and being played throughout Australia, New Zealand, U.S., Canada and Europe.

This year the album received a finalist nomination in the Victorian Country Music Awards for Album of the Year.

SONGS CURRENTLY RECEIVING AIRPLAY:

  • Goodbye Lover, Hello Friend
  • Crazy
  • Streets of Your Town
  • Got To Find Me
  • Storm of Love
  • If You Gotta Go, Go Now

I was walking along the pavement the other day, and look what I found. Why didn't someone tell me?

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

IT'S WAS SO COLD THAT:
 
1.Hitchhikers were holding up pictures of thumbs!!!
 
2.Roosters were rushing into Kentucky Fried Chicken and begging to use the pressure cooker!!!
 
3.Pickpockets were sticking their hands in strangers' pockets just to keep them warm!!!
 
4.The squirrels in the park were throwing themselves at an electric fence!!!
 
5.I chipped a tooth on my soup!!!
 
6.Grandpa’s teeth were chattering - in the glass!!!
 
7.The rats were bribing the alley cats for a snuggle!!!
 
8.The new problem - goosepimples!!!
 
9.Words froze in the air. If you wanted to hear what someone said, you had to grab a handful of sentences and take them in by the fire!!!
 
10.The dogs had to put jumper cables on the rabbits - just to get them running!!!
 
Have a great Saturday..Stay warm!!!

Long story short. I was the one that was madly in love with you and I lived in Tullamarine at the time.  I went everywhere with you and the boys. Travelled with you guys to all your performances and played guitar and sang, in private for you. Went to different outings with Steve and his family etc until the day at Werribee Music Festival when I got there you had another girl on your arm and I was history. But all is good. Guess you really don't remember me after all. The 5'2, long blonde hair and blue eyes. At your house one day you signed and gave me a 45 with A Thousand Miles on one side and you signed it. I just never have forgotten you. Thought you might have remember the times we shared but not to be. I wish you well in all that you do, you're a special person. Yours In Thought Always, Susan

CountryHome Forum, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , is one of the biggest Forum for country music in Europe and part of CountryHome, www.countryhome.de , Germany's Premier Online Country Music Magazine.

CountryHome Forum have more than 5,000 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 50,000 readers.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.

I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.

Thanks
