Description
Get rocking to inspired tunes from Taxi Violence and Machineri
Taxi Violence is inspired by bands that created and influenced the sound of rock – Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones – and later Sonic Youth, Queens of the Stone Age, Muse and Radiohead. Raw guitar sound, driving bass, powerful drum beats and in-your-face, yet melodic vocal styles are the fundamental elements that define the sound of Taxi Violence. George also draws inspiration from more eclectic sources such as Pink Floyd and ambient electro-based music like Brian Eno, The Orb and Future Sound Of London.
Machineri is a three-piece band consisting of two American Fender Stratocasters (Sannie and Andre), Drum (Daniel) and Lead Vocal (Sannie). Their sound is predominantly Blues-Rock. Sannie writes the songs and lyrics and borrows as much from literature and poetry as from real life and politics. Some influences – John Lee Hooker, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, The Black Keys, Jimi Hendrix, Chopin, Ali Farka Toure, Paganini and many more.
