About Me


"Singer wanted" was written on a note at the Jazz school. In the winter of 2006 Singer-Songwriter Christine Hasler a.k.a. "Lia Sells Fish" announced herself. On an icy cold day at the train station in Bern, advertisers Billy Husmann and Christof Schneider handed over their instrumentral CD to her. Soon thereafter the first common sample was released. Christine Hasler's voice supplemented the electronic and in-usual sound on first attempt. In consequence songs were always developed according to the same pattern: Christof Schneider's beat fragments and sound sketches, which see the light of art usually deep into the night, are completed harmoniously and melodically by Billy Husmann's Electric Piano and Synthesizer. Finally, with her lyrics and sexy-touched voice, Christine Hasler sets the songs into a dream of a sound world.
The product pleases. Naima's second concert took place at the legendary Fri-Son in Fribourg, Switzerland. The trio plays regularly in clubs. In September 2008, after intensive work in their bedroom studio: The first CD of Naima entitled "Damn right" was produced.
