BIOGRAPHY
XAMAVAR was founded by Jenia 'J. Grand' and Shaemus in October 2005 with a decisive aim - To fuse together a vast array of influences, cultures and styles into an ever-surprising blend of harmony and contradiction. And in doing so, to captivate an equally wide range of audiences, offering them a refreshing mix of familiar and brand new.
The cast fully reflects this diversity: Savannah (vocals) is a vivacious opera-trained jazz singer from Australia, Shaemus (bagpipes) was instructed by some of the best pipers in Scotland, Jenia Fab (violin) received a meticulous musical education in St. Petersburg, Xachi (drums) performed all over Europe with a renowned Israeli orchestra and Rummy (bass) is a self-taught musician and a devoted flower-child.
XAMAVAR's music is conceived by Jenia 'J. Grand' (guitar), who possesses an incredible flare for originality in composition and a strong affinity with the adventurous and unexpected. The lyrics are jointly crafted by Shaemus and Savannah, both gifted poets and daring artisans of the English language.
'Blind Still Trill', 'Older Pink' and 'Spongy Doom' are the first songs to be independently released by Xamavar, indicative of the eruptive energy and the mesmerizing/friendly complexity of their material.
'Blind Still Trill' has also been licensed for the compilation CD 'Israel Unleashed', released by JMG in November 2007.
Xamavar are currently in the final stages of writing the material for their first album.
