Skelm - Acoustic Boogie in New Zealand

Skelm's Music

This is what we sound like

Music is our vehicle. We travel on music. It takes us into new environments and allows us to meet all sorts of people. This is the essence of what we are doing. Connecting, entertaining and lifting the energy. We like to make people listen, smile and dance. Most often it works.

This is our attempt of fabricating a musical product. With the help of a number of musicians and engineers we managed to complete the production of 11 songs. The style is not really a style, rather a mixture of influences like folk, jazz, country and reggae. A truly colourful collection of tunes. This is a pretty cool CD, not just because we have managed to pull off an almost professional production, but also because the performance is kind of groovy, and includes a great international collective of musicians! We had a German on vocals & guitar, a South African on bass, a Venusuelan on sax, a Fijian on keyboard, a Korean on drums... we even had a token Kiwi on backing vocals!
