Josephine Foster<\/strong> Colorado born Josephine Foster has practically defined what it means to be an outsider folk singer. <\/p>\n Her intense, uncompromising music is the looming badlands landscape lit by the charged lightning strikes of an extraordinary voice. That voice belongs to no movement, trend or fashion, any more than the equally haunted spirit of Tim Buckley, another outsider, another unique talent, did in his day. It is simply great music and Josephine Foster is, simply, a great singer, simply a great songwriter.<\/p>\n www.myspace.com\/josephinefoster<\/a><\/p>\n Shortly thereafter, V\u00edctor began collaborating with North American songwriter Josephine Foster, accompanying her frequently in concert as well as in the recording studio, most recently playing lead guitar on her newest album ”This Coming Gladness” (Bo’Weavil Recordings, 2008). This February, as he joins us at Strand, Bo’Weavil have released his very own solo album ”Anacoreta”. A collection of his instrumental songs written for and interpreted upon the Spanish guitar, the music embodies different styles which have all formed a part of his experience\u2014classical, folkloric and contemporary threads\u2014all under the strong influence of traditional m\u00fasica Andaluz.<\/p>\n www.myspace.com\/victorherrero<\/a><\/p>\n Josephine Foster live@ Mercedes<\/p>\n
\nCoco Rosie, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Mazzy Star, Larkin Grimm, Vashti Bunyan …… I won’t go on, in fact it even seems weird to list this acts but I’m trying to paint a picture here and to point you towards references that make sense if her name rings no bells.<\/p>\n![\"clip_image006\"](\"http:\/\/sodergren.com\/kulturbloggen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/01\/clip_image006.jpg\" "\\"clip_image006\\"")
V\u00edctor Herrero<\/strong>
\nV\u00edctor was first introduced to music in his childhood, studying Gregorian and Mozarabic chant under the guidance of Benedictine monks and as a child he also began studying the classical guitar.
\nAs a teenager back in his hometown Toledo he formed a psych-rock outfit called ’Cicely’, which grew into a popular Madrid-based band. The group lasted 8 years. Following their break-up he recorded and released an album of his solo piano compositions (”Connotaciones para Piano”) which was released by the Spanish label SGAE in 2006.<\/p>\n
