"Your intellect may be confused, but your emotions will never lie to you." Roger Ebert
It is this simple and certain comprehension with which Senadee crafts his music. Brought into the world thousands of miles from where he'd eventually end up, raised in the council estates of the South-East, and polished in the forgiving landscapes of the North-West.
They say where you begin is not necessarily where you end up. His musical background has ranged from principal writer and guitarist in several bands, to vitriol-spitting MC as member of a neo-political Hip-Hop group. No one could have predicted that his little-known sideline bedroom project would eventually be the spark that ignited the engine.
Then came his break. He teamed up with super dance producer Ben Gold and featured his winning vocals and lyrics on what was to be one of the biggest underground dance hits of last year. 'Say The Words' Feat. Senadee spent 6 weeks on BBC Radio 1's dance charts with Judge Jules & Dave Pearce and was picked up by a host of big name DJs who spun it around the clock for weeks on end. As well as picking up a load of killer reviews from the likes of Mixmag and DJ mag.

Senadee soon signed to Camden based Monumental Management. He is currently working on material for his album and over the next few months you'll be able to hear these in the making on his myspace page. In the meantime, the original version of 'Say The Words' which is called 'My Fault' is available for download from Prosumer Records.
Simultaneously soaring and delicate, Senadee's songs are defined by honesty. That coupled with a melodic craftsmanship that defies his background, he is able to engineer emotion through his words and themes in a way that is the envy of even the most seasoned songwriter.
Some things in life seem to come from nowhere... And sometimes, you just kind of know where they're heading...
Senadee will be playing regularly with his band in 2009, so look out for dates and get to hear him live.
