Siapiau - Pi [CD]

Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.

Siapiau is Welsh for 'Shapes', as the four members of the band create shapes in the air out of apparently nothing. The beauty of improvisation is that, at its best, it creates something perfectly fitted to the moment it was created in.

Siapiau is a new project from four improvisers who have been playing together in different formats for over twenty years. It's a band who aren't afraid of the experimental, but aren't afraid of a good groove either. It's improvised music that you could, at times, dance to. The line-up is Maggie Nicols on voice and keyboard, Fran Bass on electric bass, Richard Harrison on Drums and percussion and Phil Hargreaves on tenor/soprano sax and flute. Although Maggie is the main vocalist, we all sing. As does everybody, of course.

Press:r

'The album is balanced on the edge of sounds. Yet the more sounds that are created, the less on the edge they become and soon the listener realises they are mainstream human - heard in the street, in the air, around the house, in the weather, in the bathroom pipes, car sounds on the road outside, birdsong and insect sounds from the bushes and trees. Siapiau tell us that all these sounds are ours, are human, consciously or subconsciously heard and absorbed by us, and felt, seen and heard by all of us, becoming a part of their worlds too.' - Chris Searle, Morning Starrr

'I found this disc to be immensely charming, silly at times and even quite weird at times yet still fun. In some ways, this sounds to me like music for children with the fun & games vibe at the centre. It does make me feel good to be alive.' - Bruce Lee Gallanter, Downtown Music Gallery, NYC
