Live @ No Man's Land - Part 1 : Laura Esther

Last saturday, I went at No Man's Land, a really cool bar in a New Yorker bar style in Villeurbanne next to Lyon to see Laura Esther and Kristyna Myles performing.
 
Laura Esther is a young singer songwriter and student in music based in Villeurbanne, in the south east of France. She writes songs rather in a soul music style. Laura  has opened Kristyna's show with 4 songs : 2 orignials and 2 covers.
 
 
I've already had the occasion to see Laura performing last year with Jc Villafan so I was eager to see her again and to discover a bit more her musical world. And all I can say, is that it worth it !!!

Laura opened the show with a new song called "Lost". She wrote that song with Ben Williams, who is the guitarist of Kristyna Myles.


She also did 2 great covers. One of the song "Hey Ya !" by Outcast and one of "Rehab" by Amy Winehouse.


 
 Laura also sang her first song "Mysterious Boy".
 
 
Laura's performance was really great. She did amazing show and she has a beautiful tone of voice. I would have love to listen to more of her songs and this show made me think about the fact that this girl gonna do great things in the years coming.

Boho Dancer

Boho Dancer is a danish trio from Copenhagen and made up of Ida Wenøe (Lead vocals & guitar), Símun Mohr (bass, guitar, backing vocals) and Asker Bjørk (drums, guitalele, backing vocals).


Boho Dancer formed in Aarhus, Denmark in 2009 around the singer and songwriter Ida Wenøe. While starting out as a quartet, the band really started flourishing when it was reduced to a trio in early 2011. They won the unsigned bands prize, hosted by Danish National Public Radio, in may 2011. Their debut EP "Furry Skin" was released in 2012.



This EP is composed by an eclectic mix of music accompagnied by Ida Wenøe's magical and captivating voice. The sound of Boho Dancer's music is really unique. I think that's probably why I like danish artists more and more. Whoever the danish artist you listen to, their is always something different and surprizing in their music.

Boho Dancer has worked on their debut full-length album set for release in April 2013. The first single of this upcoming album is "Fictional Reasons".

Jessica Morhall - "Leave It All Behind"

Jessica Morhall, the singer-songwriter from Perth, WA, has released her debut EP "Leave It All Behind".  This EP is available on itunes, CDbaby and The Holding Pattern. You can also stream it on soundcloud.


This new EP include 4 pop songs infused with soul and blues. I've been listening to this EP for a week now, and it's the kind of EP of which we don't get tired to listen to over and over again. There is something mesmerizing and relaxing in "Leave It All Behind" with  pureness and emotion in Jessica's beatuiful voice, mostly accompanied by the melody of her piano. These 4 catchy and haunting songs tell stories to which all listeners can relate.
