Strange Attractor – Mettle European Tour 2009

 

After a year producing and recording new material, Strange Attractor hits the road again in the fall of 2009 to embark on their 4th European Tour since 2006.

The trio – Niels van Hoorn, Richard van Kruysdijk and Marie-Claudine – will be performing a blend of new and older songs. Of course they will play songs from their latest, critically acclaimed CD ‘Mettle”, along with some brand new songs from their upcoming mini-CD ‘Youth.

This 4-track mini-CD has become a precious gem. The crown of this release is their beautiful cover of the Soft Cell classic ‘Youth’, that could be classified as dark-lounge.

Strange Attractor is known for their special and spontaneous live arrangements, making each concert a unique happening instead of a reproduction of the songs as they were recorded. Shifting from subtle electronic ‘songscapes’ to monumental triphop songs, Strange Attractor has created their own musical blend of modern jazz and new wave tingled triphop. The attraction of their live performance is built around the warm, soulful vocals of Marie-Claudine, the diverse wind instruments of ‘natural born performer’ Niels, and the energetic acoustic and electronic drumming of Richard.

Come out and see the shows!
