Akradia - "Rambling of a mad girl"
Format: CD
Type: EP
Label: Dotti Records
Australia, 2003
Release date: February 2004
Combining
passionate, haunting vocals with a edgy guitar and catchy, melodic pop
sensibility is the infectious musical formula of Akradia.
Formed in the late 90’s after its members spent time crossing paths in
other bands, Akradia has entertained audiences
throughout Australia, enjoying exposure at many of Sydney's major music
venues. The songs are smoothly delivered with the pop-icon, sultry vocal
stylings of singer Jodee Maree. Bassist Liz
Latimer provides the solid bass foundation for the band. Lead
guitarist Joseph Calderazzo’s
extensive 'all-round musician' background helps him shed new light on
‘alterna-pop’ guitar riffs while Drummer Lloyd G.
consistently provides not only a precise, but lyrical rhythmic
foundation for this up and coming groups music. Akradia’s EP/CD 'Ramblings
of a mad girl' showcases their unique style. The band spent a
good chunk of 2003 working on this CD, including stints at three Sydney
studios: NikkiNali at Hicksons Point (where they did most of their
earlier work), Super Apple in Lewisham, and Monsoon Music in Surry Hills
and working with producers Steve Francis (Bangarra,
Sick Puppies) Jim Hayden and Matt Fell
(Butterfly 9, Shanley Del) . 'Ramblings of a mad girl'
is laden with loud guitars, heavy hooks, and
irresistible energy and a must-have for any CD collection.
