| South Maxico consists of the four freelance-musicians Max Schultz,
Erik Söderlind, Fredrik Jonsson & Robert Ikiz. The group was
formed in the fall ofb2004, at a time when the musicians were involved
in several other projects - ranging from combo-jazz & symphony orchestras
to pop& studio-recordings.
Original songs were rehearsed and from the very beginning you could notice the broad sound of South Maxico. They are influenced by a variety of genres, with jazz-music as their basic platform. The original sound with two guitars is charactaristic for the group, but also the strong melodies, some of them written back in the 80´s by Max Schultz, but the´ve not been recorded until now. The debut-album (5 O'clock Tea) incluing 15 tracks, most of them written by Max Schultz, was recorded live. Strong melodies, solo-parts with just the right length, a vast amount of various sounds and varied rhythms is differential for this record. |
