State of Feeling Concentration (CD)
RESTOCK! INSOUND TOP SELLER OF 2001
Where have all the good singers gone? Where are the female fronted bands?
Prepare yourself for beauty beyond belief, thoughts of serine atmospheres,
and go for a journey that no other CD can offer. THE ROCKING HORSE WINNER
debut full-length CD, "State of Feeling Concentration", is promised to be the
best indie-pop CD you will buy this year. From upbeat tempos in the likes of
JIMMY EAT WORLD, THE SMASHING PUMPKINS ("Gish"-era) and THE SEA AND CAKE, to
the catchiness of influences by THE BEATLES, THE ROCKING HORSE WINNER has
something for everyone. THE ROCKING HORSE WINNER teams up with the three
original musicians that wrote the first AS FRIENDS RUST CD released on
Doghouse / Goodlife Records, with the exceptional vocal power of Jolie
Lindholm, and their most recent addition, Oliver chapoy, ex- SHAI HULUD
(Revelation) guitarist. Jolie's vocal style can be compared to, yet surpasses
that of, LISA LOEB or THE SUNDAYS. Her vocals have a soothing mid to high
octave range that are almost hypnotic to the ear. The "State of Feeling
Concentration" fuses together beautiful melodies and harmonies along with
superior musicianship. With the addition of Oliver, their live shows have
become much fuller, embodied in their use of synthesizers/keyboards,
percussion, korg polysix, sequential circuits sixtrack, vibraphone, fender
rhodes, lap steel, and tambourines. The "State of Felling Concentration" is
an excellent offering of the great things to come from this phenomenal band.
