Influences
thinking that we probably received our greatest imprinting between the ages 0 and 12. So as opposed to listing what music I've 'liked' over the years, I'm going to first list what I heard in my formative years.
- From conception through to age 12: Bob Dylan, Andy Williams, Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, Englebert Humperdink, Tony Orlando and Dawn, Roger Whittaker, The Guess Who, Cream, Donny and Marie.

Strawberry Vale is an exciting new band based out of Victoria, BC Canada. They have been described as pop, country, bluesy, with having catchy commercial sounding tunes, amazing vocals and strong soulful ballads.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Strawberry Vale makes "EDITOR'S PICK" and is reviewed on 'Download.com'
Editor's Review: A warning to Strawberry Vale: Unless you harbor a serious desire to be sampled by Eminem, you'd be wise to stop making such luscious, pretty pop songs. The Victoria, B.C., artist sings with a whispery delivery reminiscent of previous Eminem samplee Dido, while adding her own ethereal electronic touches..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'a real revelation'
Nov 2005
Peri Urban, Music Reviewer - Scotland, UK "Strawberry Vale is a real revelation. The production is warm and intimate (which is exactly what you need with a voice like that). The song writing is wonderfully straightforward and refreshing, with very direct lyrics that are both meaningful and commercial. I love it!
What is it about Canadian music? Everywhere I go on the web I keep coming across brilliant Canadian music. I'm gonna check out the rest of those links and revel in some more great stuff."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Strawberry Vale is reviewed by Img Music Promotions "Strawberry Vale possess the right combination of artistic integrity and commercial viability necessary to advance within the industry. The songs were insightful, captivating and well produced....." Tyra Danielle, Promotions Mgr
I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:

Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka

It's nice to see that you still have your MySpace profile. I looked for you on Facebook, but can't find you there. Sometimes I can't log into one or the other sites, so I go to the other one. For the past few days I can't go to Facebook, So here I am for as long as it takes to straighten out the problem. How's the music flowing? I'm in Vietnam still, and enjoying it as much as possible.
