"Bianca Meier-Oh Bright Night"

Sydney singer-songwriter Bianca Meier has only been performing publicly for a little over a year and she has already played alongside the likes of Ian Moss, Dave Graney and Diesel. Meier composed the songs on her debut EP Oh Bright Night as she toured Australia in her 70’s kombi van, flitting between solo gigs at remote pubs and funky coffeehouses. On Oh Bright Night she is accompanied by a full band, including her brother and her Dad, while still bringing a charming intimacy to the six very different songs on this recording.

Oh Bright Night opens with the decidedly Celtic Pirates which, with its slightly creepy story and rich vocal harmonies, is a fine contemporary addition to the venerable tradition of pirate ballads. Meier’s next song, Walk the Earth, is a great Rockabilly number with a classic sound. Okay is a relationship song in the Ani Di Franco tradition, in which the songwriter finds her unique voice. Okay may become a go-to break-up song, with its simple, but unprecedented lyric “It is okay that you don’t love me”.

Sing is a happier song about the beginnings of love, whist the Devil Song is a Blues that shows off Bianca Meier’s grittier side. But she bounces right back in Brighter than the Day, by far the sweetest song here, and an up note to end on. Oh Bright Night is a truly eclectic collection from this promising new artist, whose gift for songwriting, vocal versatility and musical next-of-kin might just make her the next Kasey Chambers or Julia Stone.

Bio

Bianca Meier walks the earth with the sunshine, strumming and singing her own original folk-pop tunes along the way. Her powerful voice and sharp songwriting style can even make the devil smile.

Drawing on Swiss and Serbian heritage, Meier now resides in Sydney where she is carving her name in the live music and recording scene. When she's not at home in Sydney she can be found on the road touring in her '74 pop-top kombi van, bringing sunshine to the nation's ears.

At the tender age of twenty, Meier has been performing live since mid 2009 and has already found a comfortable place in her craft, playing next to artists such as Diesel, Matt Corby, Ian Moss and Dave Graney. She has also travelled and played in many smokey venues in NSW, VIC, ACT and QLD.

Keep your ears out for Meier’s debut Ep, set to arrive in mid Sept ’10, followed by a National Tour in October '10.
The EP will be recorded with a full band and will give a well rounded view of the free spirited Meier as a songwriter, performer and person.
