(R.I.P.) Mista Pawa 1999-2007

1999 - 2007

About Me

Un Rock habité, basé sur la terre du Blues, mais on ne parle pas de Blues à papa, là... Les démons hantent le bordel et quelqu'un a flingué le pianiste... Planeurs psyches qui chassent dans le terrain du rock dur... Blues noisy, rock ambiant... Allez comprendre... MISTA PAWA se libère d'étiquettes pour rendre une vision toute personnelle de la chose rock'n'roll.
Differentes ambiances, differentes couleurs pour des morceaux qui ne se ressemblent pas.
Au fait: c'est chante en francais, ouais? Ouais, c'est bizarre, c'est notre langue maternelle... Incroyable, on vous dit!
Plus de cent concerts dans toute la France, un album et un EP autoproduits, 4 titres enregistres avec basse-batterie l'ete 2006 et un nouvel EP sorti en fevrier 2007 (en duo).
MISTA n'a jamais triche et attaquait direct aux tripes, avec violence ou nostalgie, ça t'lâche, ça t'retient, ça te reprend au vol. Mais ca ne se fout pas de ta gueule.
Mista Pawa vient de se separer (Juin 2007).
Merci a celles et ceux qui nous ont soutenus, d'une facon ou d'une autre.

Some lines for english-talkin' people...
We're MISTA PAWA and we're french (huh?). If you know how does it feel when you wake up and you're still drunk and you wanna call your ex-wife which is gone with your ex-best friend but it's allright, well, you suppose, you'll know a bit of the MISTA's spirit.
We talk and we play about opposites things such as burning passions, hopes, pain and misery deep into your gut, alcohol in your throat and that guitar in your hand. We try to work our rock to the bone. And sometimes, we like being dumb and laughing while singing. We're not gothic assholes, thank dog!
I hope you understand what we wrote, remember, we're french... So...
We've made more than a hundred live gigs and we've self-produced one Lp and one EP. We've recorded 4 new songs this July. We putted some extracts here on our profile. Check it and feel the blue in your heart.
Then we recorded 5 new tracks (in the new duo version of Mista Pawa) in january 2007. Here you can listen to some new tracks.
Today, Mista Pawa has splitted, the band is dead and we thank each and everyone who helped us, in a way or in another.
THANK YOU AND BYE.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/23/2006
Band Website: mista-pawa.com
Band Members: DOM and GEP, baby!
Dom - vocals, guitar, harmonica, organ
Gep - guitar
Influences: I've been drowned and I've been down. I lost all I have before I got it, I lost you before I got you, I've seen the steps of those stairs and the sunburst coulour of their chairs, I smelt the scent of freedom and burning flesh, I've seen the power of nature in those trees but I've seen the ones you hung to their branches, I've seen these empty streets and that empty glass, gimme a drink, gimme a dollar, one or two, and that crazy man shall ride the entire world.

Bands:

Led Zeppelin, Nick Cave, Early Alice Cooper Band's stuff, dEUS, John Mellencamp, Madrugada, David Bowie's Diamond dogs, Izzy Stradlin, Queens Of The Stone Age, Lou Reed, John Frusciante, Charlelie, Melvins, Mark Lanegan, Zappa, Jeff Buckley... well, I don't know why but I don't feel so good... ... .... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

Sounds Like: Comme une cuite amère, comme un réveil gueule de bois, comme la spontéanité d'un enfant, comme les folles espérances et comme le bruit des bottes d'un cowboy qui s'barre au loin...

You fight headache with a a hammer. You're never so tough except when you're weak. You have a code, som'kinda honnor code. You believe in the truth of nature, you like samuraïs and cowboyz. Maybe you'll like our songs. That's Blues, that's Love, that's Rock and that's french. A problem, sir?
Type of Label: None
