About Me

L IONS &L AMBS
'A Celebration of Life as One Huge Misunderstanding, Pt. 1 of Many'

EN/
A fragile duo consisting of one boy and one girl trying to recreate and re-invent an atmosphere similar to the one created by Tom Waits, Beirut and Feist on a picknick in midwinter; using a similarly fragile acoustic instrumentation (a scatchy violin & banjo, mandolin-banjo, and a guitar & accordeon found at the dump). This duo will soon grow into a band (which will, hopefully grow into a gypsy marching band which will, hopefully grow into a symphonic orchestra) to comply with our ambitious instrumental wishes...

NL/
Een breekbaar duo van één jongen uit a'pen en één meisje uit bxl, die met een uitgebreide en eveneens breekbare akoestische instrumentatie (viool, banjo, banjo-mandoline, recyclage-centrum-gitaar en idem-akkordeon) proberen de sfeer te scheppen en fusioneren van Tom Waits, Beirut en Feist op een gezamelijke picknick in hartje winter.
Dit duo zal binnenkort uitgroeien tot een groep (die, zo hopen wij toch, zal uitgroeien tot een zigeunerfanfare die, zo hopen wij toch, zal uitgroeien tot een symfonisch orkest) om aan onze iets megalomanere wensen te voldoen.

Johannes&Nele (we're not sure who's Lions and who's Lambs but that problem will undoubtedly solve itself)

Member Since: 3/13/2007
Band Website: www.myspace.com/LionsVSLambs
Band Members:

Lions&Lambs Duo:
J OHANNES G ENARD (Songs, Vocals, Guitars, Banjo)

& N ELE P AELINCK (Accordeon, Violin, Piano)


There is, as of yet, no final band, but the day will come when we will storm every stage in sight!


Influences:

The Interwar Period and its swing, Pop, Rock, Experimental, Traditional and Artsy (not fartsy) folk music from literally all over the entire world; people on trams; kids in the park that fall out of the chute crying and you can't stop laughing even though you know you shouldn't; the way railway tracks and telephone wires blend together and slither up and down when you're looking out of a train at high speed; faces you see in clothes when you're distracted, people that look like they just ran out of 'Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain', sentences that sum up everything, lists of influences on myspace-profiles...


Sounds Like:

An altavista-babelfish translation from brainwaves to english sentences, of certain aspects of Johannes Genard's character he had to discover or felt like he wanted to explain to the world in general. Besides that, a combination of the sounds of Tom Waits on a happy day, Beirut on an experimental day, Zita Swoon on a quiet day and Feist after a gender-operation.

Apologie van Lions&Lambs (gespeeld door Julien Schoenaerts)

De Apologie van Lions&LambsBeste mensen die de demo reeds hebben gehoord.Wij willen ons excuseren tegenover zij die misschien iets meer over iets alternatievers of iets concreter hadden verwacht (...
