   About MinusBlue

"Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking."

MinusBlue makes little worlds of music that hold your hand and take you away to a better place. MinusBlue works with songs and vocals and electronics and sometimes guitars, but feels that is just all sound, and sound is good.

**************************************************************

Tracks for the forthcoming LP are Pale September, In Your Arms, Be As One, Surrounded, Over This, Souvenir, Ocean Sky, Fade Of Day, Sweet Harmony, Close Your Eyes, Just One Day, Ghosts and All Around Me.

The LP - 'Clear Blue Eyes' - is finished.

Big Love, Leigh:)
