About Me


MySpace Generators MySpace Editor MySpace Icons Icons Collage MySpace Blog "THE STREAMLINERS".....don’t sound like anyone else …they’re not blues, not soul, not roots, not jazz, not funk…yet they are all these things and they just sound like the streamliners....these guys really have a sound of their own…they’re truly a unique band’ ( ‘Blues Power’ 3D Radio FM).
In the backwoods dustbowl desertscape that is South Australia, a distinct sound weaves a common thread through most bands in the locale. Largely attributable to the isolated environment engulfing the city of Adelaide, this sound is easily identified when listening to the music of the Streamliners.
There is a unique synergy at play when these four musicians get together and make some noise. Their unpredictable live shows take on a firey spin of their own that to the audience's delight, sound fresher and somewhat beyond the four CD's released over the last few years. The Streamliners are a group continually striving to take that extra step into the void and to hell with what is expected.
Since 1989, many gigs and musical miles later, they continue to inspire longtime fans and newcomers alike with the strange, elusive brew of bluesy, folk, space/funk/rock experiments (they've come a long way since their Muddy Waters coverband days) and never seem to wallow in any one place for too long.
Sample their latest 4th release ‘Under the Moondogs’, already receiving rave reviews on the street.
…their sound has always been a difficult one to categorise however, the band likes to call its music “roots-rock” because of the many boundaries it moves over into, including swamp- rock, bluegrass, jazz, delta blues, funk, country, and soul.
Y POR ESAS COSAS RARAS DE LA VIDA!
