Kinky Durakee.....

About Me

Vocals by gi ie. Gulzhan Ibrayeva and she is from Kazakhstan and is a "fantastic singer" according to some recent reviews in Scotlands own "The Daily Record". Guitars, bass guitar and bits of keys by Paul Finnie, and Gareth Brown also on bass guitar, guitars and bits of keys. Drums ....well thats an ongoing saga.. Started out in Kazakhstan as an off-shoot from another band and been performing numerous gigs since 2001. Formed their own label Joesoap Records Ltd to release their own EP/Single Iskala. Played on terrestial and internet radio including shows such as Beatscene Beat106, Streaming Radio, Scottish Internet Radio etc.. Easier to listen to than describe, but we aim to sound like ourselves and we also specialize in the uplifting chorus!! We look cool too, as our website pictures prove!Plans and the future: Just compeleted recording a new album titled "Separate Together" and will be gigging later in the year year.Four of the new tracks are posted on this Myspace site.Two videoa also available for viewing

Influences: Huge CD collections mean plenty influences.Paul says:If influences include stuff that your dad played and those first records that stayed on the turntable for weeks, then....Anyone and everyone from Tom Jones, Abba (dont knock it..they knew what they were doing..), Oasis, The Cult, Meatloaf, Paul Weller, RHCPs, Madonna, Sheryl Crow, Gary Numan, Iron Maiden, Coldplay, The Rolling Stones, Zemfira, The Human League, U2, Big Country, Simple Minds, Bon Jovi, Anouk, Oasis, Duran Duran, Head Automatica, Did I mention The Cult?? Billy Duffy is a genius, Guns n Roses..yeh plenty..The guys admire the like of Queen for being willing and able to produce those early albums with many different musical styles in the space of 10 or 12 tracks....thats cool.
Sounds Like: We are Kinky Durakee, ......and aim to sound like ourselves.But..... some comparisons from those who listen:"The lead vocals are like... Nora Jones and John Mayor went off and had a love child and she ROCKS..""Cool sound, the singer reminds me of Dido, could definitely be on the quality new rock stations. Makes me feel good, I love the chicks style, gets more skillful then Dido usually does.."and another Dido comment.."Like Dido but without the wetness.."But Dido doesnt have chunky, driving guitars, bass lines of bubbling chocolate and reeeal drums......we do.
Record Label: Our own small label. www.joesoaprecords.co.uk
