2003 saw the birth of today's naio ssaion, though the band had been playing together since 1999 in an other incarnation. At the end of the year, they began working with producer Dejan Radicevic in Tivoli Productions (Ljubljana) to recreate the vigorous energy and exceptional power of their live act in a digital framework .
naio ssaion's first release, entitled numedia and sung solely in Slovenian, was released in April 2004 by CPZ Publishing.
Simultaneously, naio ssaion released a self-produced video for the track “n.ss”, which received extended airplay on Slovenian television. “n.ss” soon became one of Slovenia's most frequently played songs and stayed at the top of the charts for weeks. The album quickly climbed to ..14 in the Slovenian album charts, while the band reached ..5 in the 2004 newcomer charts.
The spring of 2004 proved an exciting time for naio ssaion, as they participated in Newcomer 04, an international new talent competition held in Graz, Austria. The band took home the first place trophy and went on to repeat their victory in September of the same year at AlpeAdria 2004 in Monfalcone, Italy.
naio ssaion has always made live performances a priority, playing a vast number of concerts, including a show in Austria opening for Pink on 17 July 2004. This chance of a lifetime was a turning point for the band and the beginning of an international musical career that prompted them to sign a worldwide recording contract with NAPALM RECORDS. While working on new material for their upcoming debut, naio ssaion remained quite active, shooting a second video for “bla bla” (a song which along “n.ss” was nominated for the song of the year award in Slovenia), and playing live, including a performance in support of Finn virtuosos Apocalyptica. In 2005, naio ssaion completed work on their NAPALM RECORDS debut album to be released on 25 November. A refined mix of modern and powerful rock songs featuring spellbinding vocals and sensational violin arrangements, out loud remains true to the band's mantra: “If we don't like to play it live, it won't make it on the album”. Their attitude is one that screams to let it all out—as loud and energetic as possible. To fulfill their legacy, naio ssaion were delighted to be invited by the German Band In Extremo to join them on their tour in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The Band played in front of more than 50.000 fans in 23 cities and was overwhelmed by the enthusiastic reactions of the audience. For naio ssaion the tour was “absolutely awesome” so the band was really pleased to be asked after returning back to Slovenia to support one of their favorite bands: Ill Nino in Graz / Austria.
More to be expected….
