SOCCER COMMITTEE - CD SC

Popis - SC:
This is the first record by Mariska Baars from Leiden, Holland. Since 2002, she has been writing and recording songs under the name Soccer Committee. Her first self-released cdr was very well received, which ao resulted in a spot on the prestigious Dwars-festival of the dutch VPRO-radio. The experience of her live-shows, in which she stripped her own songs even further, is clear on her cd-debut. Aart Schakenbos (Julie Mittens) managed to get the spaciousness of these songs on tape. The CD comes in a stylish cardboard gatefold sleeve, designed by Rutger Zuyderveldt of Machinefabriek, who also remixed the opening track Carps. This remix is available on his 2CD "Weleer". Recommended if you like: Julie Doiron, Richard Youngs, early Catpower, Annelies Monseré, Rivulets, Anton Webern... Minimal songwriting with female vocals.
