| About monica schroeder |
|
Moving from dynamic, full-bodied pop songs to haunting guitar/voice numbers, Monica's recordings seek to blend her acoustic performance style with an electronic edge. At the same time, maintaining those qualities that draw people to her music a beautiful voice and the ability to communicate on an emotional level with her audience through her songs. Lyrically, Monica writes honest explorations of comfort and hope, while trying to convey the difficulty in believing that these things can be found.
In the past year, Monica has teamed up with the U.S. indie-electronic label, 'A Different Drum' to release her newest CD "So Far" - produced by Joey Bellville of 'The Echoing Green'. This fall, Monica debuted her new release and performed at the A Different Drum electronic music festival in Salt Lake City on September 1, 2006. The album is scheduled for immediate release and is available at www.adifferentdrum.com
In the fall of 2005, 'A Different Drum' released a full-length remix album (Move Me) around the world, with songs taken from each of Monicas first 2 CDs and the song Poison hit ..1 on the Amazon.com Trance and Dance charts!
"Featuring one of the most spellbinding voices to grace Canadian music ... her acclaimed, independently released debut, 'The Expectation of Home', is a true gem. This Manitoba singer/songwriter is Canada's finest undiscovered artist."
-- Billboard Magazine
