Musikmarkt - Transister

The credentials from the anglo-american trio Transister are convincing: "We believe in the power of songs" explains singer Keely Hawkes from UK. She formed the band together with the Scottish guitarplayer Gary Clark and the Californian bassplayer Eric Pressly. Their debut single 'Look who's perfect now' could already has to been seen here on MTV and Viva 2. With the eleven new songs on 'Transister' they have made their first album.The foundation of the sound is melodic popmusic, played on conventionel instruments played. The sound of this dynamic trio is refined by particular loops and samples and more exotic instruments. There is no fear to expand the guitarrock with cellos, horns and drumloops. For 'Look who's perfect now' even a fragment from Claude Debussy was sampled - and played backwards.
