小简介
Room Eleven是一支来自荷兰的五人爵士乐队,成立于2001年,主要在阿姆斯特丹作Live演出。主唱Janne Schra的嗓音有着特殊的吸引力,十分迷人,而且感觉是伸展自如,弹性很大的,无论是低呤还是亢奋,都控制得恰到好处!
A self-described "jazzbossafolksoul-combo," Room Eleven are a five-piece from Amsterdam who play jazzy, smart, and nostalgic music. They began coming together in 2001 when guitarist and composer Arriën Molema answered a "musicians wanted" ad vocalist Janne Schra had posted at the Utrecht Conservatorium. It took until 2004 for them to round out a band with keyboard player Tony Roe, contrabass player Lucas Dols, and drummer Maarten Molema joining the group. Their effervescent live gigs around Amsterdam became more popular as word of mouth quickly spread. The Universal record label caught wind of Room Eleven, signed them, and partnered them with DJ/producer Floris Klinkert for their debut album. The result, Six White Russians & a Pink Pussycat, appeared in 2006. A year later the album was reissued with a bonus disc featuring the band's quirky cover of the Meredith Brooks song "Bitch."
