Synopsis

Product Description
antje has become popular with listners of WERS in boston and thanks to that station and cdbabdy.com and her devoted and wonderful listners has been fullfilling her dream of making a living with music instead of going back to school and getting a real job. her songs 'erin', 'black annis' and 'poisonjester's mask' have been recorded by the freakishly talented irish group SOLAS. she can be found on a compilation with norah jones (chance and circumstance) on a film by maureen folley called 'american wake' and in a cabin in vermont where she likes to sun herself by this beautiful little lake. she's won a bunch of song contests. ellis paul has called her a poet. chris smithers has said he liked her sunglasses once....... 'boys, flowers, miles' captures the feel and intimacy of her live performances. a full-fledged studio album is in the works for later this year.

CD Reviews

Her best CD - simple acoustics, lovely voice, great lyrics
E. J. Hudspith | 09/11/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have all Antje's CD's. This is my favourite.

Spare guitar backing that enables her voice to command the performance. Very intimate, personal song-style and the talks are very funny and innocent. She took some of these songs to make "Big Dream Boulevarde, which is better recorded but spoiled because the backing musicians dominate the the great voice and emotional sound.

Sweet voice, can go high and be a little husky.

Great lyrics. I'm an old folkey - my son is into expressive modern rock - we both love this CD.

I love her - MORE PLEASE OF THIS STYLE ANTJE!!"
Awesome

"Nice mix of folk rock, politics, jokes and songs about pigs sung in German. Fantastic voice, excellent songwriting. I hear she's recording a new album with Seamus Egan from Solas as producer. Can't wait."
Folk music with modern lyrics
K. Kihlstrom | 01/03/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Antije's music is essentially folk, with clear resonate lyrics and stories explaining them, and few synthesized instruments. Her voice is unique and gorgeous, clear and soaring on high notes, and just a bit husky on low ones.

Her lyrics are interesting, touching on deep and good things, but have surprisingly modern twists even in an essentially folk style song: she'll talk about movies or buses alongside a song with almost sonnet like qualities. This album particularly has a song about Judas which brings the listener sharp stabs of pity for him.

Both her albums are incredibly worth buying."
