About Me

MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile Generator Hi!My name is Fabiane Laube, I´m a singer and composer from Brazil and for some strange reason I ended up in a cold land called Finland. I liked it so much that I have spent the last 8 years (and counting) of my life here ;) I´ve realized I could sing when I was about 11 years old. As a child my voice only made my aunts tell me to be quiet ! At the age of 12 I was singing with a friend and this 50 year-something-old man, told me if I had ever heard of Janis Joplin because he thought the similarity was, in his opinion great. I decided to take a look at it and completely fell in love with her voice and the way she performed and got so involved with the 70´s that I started to listen to a lot of bands from that time.Besides Janis.one of my favourite bands was Led Zeppelin. I simply love Robert Plant´s voice.After putting a note on my city´s newspaper "Vocalist searches for band" I started singing in different cover bands, singing all kinds of rock balads of the 70´s and what was famous at that time.One of my most sucessful bands was the "janis in concert" band in which I of course sang Janis´s songs around cities in my state.After two years on the road my fate changed and I moved to the US for a while.After that, I came to Finland and decided to stay. Here I have met great musicians with whom I have made the album "SOL DE AGOSTO"(available in stores in Finland) with songs in my mother tongue (portuguese) and also English. I really enjoyed composing for this album and writing the lyrics, it´s a work in progress and I hope to continue doing it. Nevertheless, my rock side keeps bugging me towards composing songs in English and maybe not so much towards jazz.Music is a world of multiple possibilities and I simply love that!So now I´ve been composing other kinds of material. So,if you are a musician and a rock and roll lover, please do stop by. Who knows... maybe we can make music together.The journey continues...
and here is some info about my work in SOL DE AGOSTO: Fabiane Laube and the band is a group of versatile musicians exploring the depths of Latin sounds, rich with jazz and pop influences. Fabiane is the main vocalist and lyrics writer. With Brazilian roots, she brings uplifting Latin rhythm and contagious energy to the bands performance, combined with Nordic precision and profound melancholy. Her voice is crystal clear and soaring, delivering intricate messages through powerful performances.With varied influences, from rock, opera, Brazilian sounds and rhythms, Fabiane is creating truly universal sound with lyrics which are intricate yet powerful. Her singing career in Finland took yet another twist before forming her own band, Fabiane has been singing with Sateenkaarikuoro, womens choir performing folk songs from all over the world in their native languages. This experience added another dimension to Fabianes voice and enticed further her creative development.
Fabiane & The Band formed just recently, in one of these coincidences of life. After meeting by chance drummer Sami Kontola they decided to establish a band. Thanks to Sami, her band has been well put together. Fabianes bands musicians share not only the same musical professionalism, dedication and strength, but they are as well a closely knitted circle of friends. Their performances are the most vivid proof of that common sensibility you can virtually feel musical and personal synergy flowing from the stage.
Fabiane and the band already have behind them imposing list of live performances and public appearances, especially Fabiane as the bands alpha and omega. Fabiane and the guys are releasing their first album in the forthcoming few weeks and you can catch them performing live next on..... (above)
