Ship of Ara - s/t CD (LSCD 009)
singer/songwriter debut by West-German 80's neo-garage heros
SHIP
OF ARA is the new duo of Groucho Kangaroo and Stefan Schlensag.
Groucho’s work with the COSMIC KANGAROOS and Stefan’s leading part in
THE HIPSTERS are well known realities to all those 80’s neo-garage and
psychedelic freaks out there. But now they have ventured out to present
their folky sides – which won’t mean that there’s no noise involved…
Stefan
and Groucho share a fascination for 60’s folk and blues recordings on
Vanguard, Elektra, Prestige and the like. So it’s kinda natural to them
to carry this tradition into the next century, millennium, whatever…
The idea is to create a powerful sound on the basis of acoustic
instruments. All songs were written for acoustic guitar and voice, but
the arrangements add electric lead guitars, percussion and sometimes a
good dose of feedback. Woven into the elements of electric folk are
some psych features. Tremolo effects and droning bass lines make the
songs hover around in the ether.
The SHIP OF ARA is made for water and space alike – you decide where
your ears want to land…
Groucho Kangaroo: vocals, acoustic guitar, electric slide guitar,
darabuka.
Stefan Schlensag: vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, banjo,
accordeon, harmonica.
