the vorarlberg vocalist aja brings 'nu soul' & 'chills up your spine' with her new band. with her soul group aja has finally found and created her space within her voice is 'back home' (a title of a song of hers) yet totally free and flexible. her voice moves you and leads you astray, is real and gives itself to the listener in all shapes and colours. you'd think aja sings for her life when you hear her singing about things in songs such as 'free' and 'blue planet' that we all deal with. from souljazzy intimacy to extroverted groove orientation the band melts the compositions by aja and toni eberle on a very sensitive and organic level together. this is no 'old school soul' but 'nu soul' which becomes very lively through its jazzy harmonies and the beatz. aja's intelligent and sensitive lyrics are supported by song orientated arrangements in which toni eberle's signature can't be over heard. aja's soul group is a ray of light in times of endless and numerous chartbreakers and one hit wonders out of the category soul and r'n'b corner. soul with message from the heart. don't miss it!
