Meg & Dia

韓裔美籍姐妹所組成的搖滾 雙人組Meg & Dia，妹妹Dia是樂隊的主唱，而姐姐Meg則是樂隊的吉他手，她們已經參加過很多大大小小的巡回演出，受到歌迷們的好評，并且積累了很多豐富的經驗，這為她們未來的音樂創作奠定了基礎。她們的首張專輯Something Real于2006年發行，這張是她們2009年的第二張大碟，整張專輯都是抒情緩慢的搖滾歌曲，音樂中充滿了年輕人那種活力和積極向上的感覺，輕松、活潑的旋律總能抓住你的耳朵。 Crafting a sound halfway between alternative rock and confessional singer/songwriter pop, the Utah-based band Meg & Dia began as a way for Meg and Dia Frampton to play music together. The Frampton sisters' dad was a DJ and the girls were exposed to a wide range of music while they were growing up, and were encouraged to express themselves through music: Dia sang at county fairs, while Meg guitar by playing along with the radio. Though the sisters played in several bands throughout their teen years, they took a break from the music business when Meg went to college in Salt Lake City. By 2005, though, the Framptons were ready to try again, so Dia joined Meg in SLC. In search of a bigger sound, the pair recruited drummer Nicholas Price and guitarist Kenji Chan; with their lineup complete, they recorded their first album, Our Home Is Gone, which they self-released later that year. The album, and Meg & Dia's live shows, caught the attention of Doghouse Records, which signed the band late in 2005 and put them in the studio with producers Stacy Jones and Bill Lefler to work on their first album for the label. Along with recording, Meg & Dia spent 2006 touring, including a stint on the Warped Tour's MySpace stage that summer. Their first Doghouse release, the What Is It? A Fender Bender EP, also arrived that summer, with the full-length Something Real coming out shortly after. That fall, Chan left the band amicably, but the sisters soon found themselves talking with Warner Bros, and soon had signed to the major label. Something Real was then released in summer 2007, just in time for Meg & Dia's dates on that year's Warped Tour. 更多>>
