About Me

Here lie the thoughts and words of Coraline... embark upon a journey into a magical world...Passions for music, literature and the ridiculous intertwine....

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 11/2/2006
Band Website: www.coralineuk.co.uk
Band Members: Rae Evans - vocals and keys, words and thoughts. Sarah Mayo - violin. Joel Roberts - The Bass. Leon Scott - Drums. Trumpet on Rita - Graham South, Trombone on Rita - Owain Roberts Cello on Rapunzel - Deborah Chandler
Influences: We like lots of things... nice strong cups of tea (with not much milk for rae)...lovely crisp mornings when you can see your breath but you have a warm hat on...anything magical, witchy or mythical.... As for music - here's a few who influence our sound...Bjork Tori Amos PJ Harvey Anthony and The Johnsons Aretha Billie Ella Sarah Vaughan Mahler Bob Dylan Jeff Buckley J.S. Bach Wagner Joan Armatrading Kate Bush Samuel Barber Sigur ros
Sounds Like: the things you feel when you look at the rain and a story comes into your head from a long while ago/ the things you feel when you realise that everything always has a separate meaning and you just discovered the one that makes sense.....twinkly sounds and bashed out chords, soaring sweeps of a violin and a voice whispering in your ear......
Record Label: NP records
Type of Label: Indie
