HISTORY:
"MY RAINING STARS is a story of 2 friends and former members of Nothing To Be Done, who
were keen several years later to get together again to work on a shared
musical goal.
First, there were new songs written by T.Haliniak
and recorded on an old, four-track recorder. These fresh, spontaneous
titles revealed the quality of the compositions which seduce from the first
time you listen to them. However, inadequately dressed to make their way
out into the open, E-grand and Mathea took on the mission to strip them down
and to re-clothe them with the best garments. They weaved them from gold
string and velour, ornating them with pearls and precious stones, and
crafting them in the finest art of ideal, Indie Pop. E-grand and Mathea,
already accomplices in the production of "Elsewhere" from Dynamo, added
their experience and Pop fibre to the vocal melodies of T.Haliniak.
The lead voice is brilliantly comforted by intermingled, background vocals.
The abundance of crystal and lively yet meticulous guitars authentically
solidify the force of "From St Saviour to Quickwell", an album filled with
passion and which resurrects the 3 protagonists of MY RAINING STARS and rekindled
friendship."
