About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorViolet Lades was born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife in 1982, but she is currently living in Barcelona. Always a compulsive creator, she started writing songs and novels at a young age. Her first book, Muertos o algo Mejor (montesinos, 1995) was published when she was just 14 years old. Last year Violet wrote another novel, Renos Salvajes(Wild Reindeers) which is in the process of being published. She is currently working on a new book, all while continuously writting new songs and giving shape to her music. A self-taught singer/song writer, Violet views herself as an "orphaned musician, just trying to find some adoptive musician parents."* Although her songs channel those feelings of abandonment, Violet sings and plays guitar with a conviction that seems to convey an emotional maturity that's beyond the need of guidance or mentoring. Adoptive parents or not, Violet has a need to communicate and a hunger to create that comes out as uniquely beautiful rock music. By herself or surrounded by musicians, Violet will continue making music the same way a lonely kid finds a way to play alone: with only her imagination to guide her."*In 1982, Polly Jean Harvey was 12 years old and Mark Lanegan was 16 years of age. They where both in Spain, specifically in the back off an El Camino, and they where both very drunk on boxed wine. Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing was on the radio... Short story shorter, after nine months of secrecy, Violet was left on a door step.I'd give you my eyes
