+ Special guest dj - SISTER BLISS
This Saturday,
December 13th, Œ97 @ IRVING PLAZA
The first time in town they pushed to the stage, through a
shoulder to shoulder crowd clamoring for a touch of England's
latest music sensation. The ten piece strong FAITHLESS did
not dissapoint, as they stormed through a ninety minute FULL
ON set, complete with two encores, to an overcapacity crowd
of delighted fans.
Many who had come out just to hear the hits like SALVA MEA
and the super catchy INSOMNIA, were blown away by the full
Live show with full ensemble headed up by the multi talented
Sister Bliss, Maxi Jazz and Jamie Catto. See and hear for yourself
on December 13.
FAITHLESS hit the charts in Europe with the release of "Salva
Mea (Save Me)" and rocked the dance floors WORLWIDE with the
pumping Armand Van Helden remixes of "Insomnia", both off their
powerful debut album "Reverence" ( Arista Records). Their album
is generally found under pop/dance, but don't let that underestimate
the diversity of sounds they bring - ³Hearing REVERENCE for the first
time is like suddenly having 30 years of popular music explode in
your face...² MELODY MAKER
The perfect combination of founders, Rollo and Sister Bliss, both
established and respected DJ/Producers, sets the ground for a style
of dance music with an emphasis on the emotions and energy of the
crowd. Stir in the earthy voicings and lyrical skills of Jamie Cotto,
and the positive energy and vibes of Buddhist rapper/poet Maxi Jazz
and they ³ will blow your socks off - an astonishing achievement²
ALBUM OF THE MONTH MUZIK MAG - ambient dreamscapes to hard hitting
house tracks to urgent dance rhythms to cooled out dub.
The transformation from LP to the Live stage is seamless, dynamic
and natural. ³The beats are like rolling thunder, the pace is distinctly
down tempo, the melodies are sweet²- NEW MUSIC EXPRESS. ³ Sounds
like everything and nothing you¹ve heard before² ID
Following the live set catch Sister Bliss on the one 'n' twos,
keeping the night firmly on the dance floor -it is SATURDAY NIGHT
after all! - DON¹T SLEEP - CAUSE FAITHLESS ARE BACK FOR what's sure
to be another SELL OUT show!
