21 year old singer/songwriter Roxanne de Bastion has been performing in and around Berlin for the last 10 years. Her performances, featuring an impressive repertoire of original material, also include songs by The Beatles, Bob Dylan and other artists of influence. Whether in front of an audience of 50 or 5000, she has a natural, vibrant and highly charismatic stage presence, both as a solo artist and fronting her band.
In October 2006, Roxanne de Bastion ventured to the UK, where she’s managed an unrelenting schedule of performing, recording and band – ing. Highlights of her performing career (open air Festivals, rock venues and acoustic showcases) have been London’s The Troubadour, The 100 Club and The legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool.
â€What hits the audience, even more than Roxanne’s vibrant stage presence, is the music itself. Her music. Like the greater songwriters of the last century – I’m thinking of the likes of Jimmy Webb, Bob Dylan, Laura Nyro, Carloe King, John Lennon and Joni Mitchell – Roxanne’s songs are deeply original yet touch the listener as if they already know them. In short, they are instantly memorable.†(FOCUS July 07)
