Details:
Some say this is rock with a classical voice. INSPIRITION is spiritual rock. Dare the sound if you''re feeling indigo! with a voice like Pink crossed with Kate Bush, Cyndie Lauper,and Kim Wilde!
INSPIRITION formed last year. Isabel found Gren, Gren found the team- chosen from the creme de la creme of South West musicians.... Recording and perfectionism, fun and games have brought us together into a rock solid friendship (phew, hard work!) Charlie now produces some of the songs aided and abetted by Gren, but we all have our say! Isabel and Gren write most of the work either fitting his chords to her melodies or, magically and spontaneously, together.... Then there are those cool dance beats Charlie drums up, for which Isi just happens to have the perfect lyric waiting in the wings and then the Guitar riffs and song patterns of Andy were made for some other melody dreamed up by Isi on the Berlin underground trains....and ooh la la, what about Clive''s yummy sax...we are still blown away by his sound! Jools has been like finding a diamond, we are loving his strong hands and sensitive style on the drums... Team spirit is difficult but ESSENTIAL, and we would like to keep our friendship!

Inspirition is new! But we like our rock and roll, our funk, our jazz, our lyrical.... people say I sound like Kate Bush (Isabel) but that''s just because I have a clear strong voice. Then you couple that with a rock band and you get REAL music! Imagine getting James Brown Lorenna Mc Kennit, Bjork, and Christina Aguilera together in a room, than adding musicians from Prince''s studio, an organ, Keith Moon, (er what else?), well a pinch of salt. Then you bring it into 2008, and you''ve got INSPIRITION! And of course you still can''t understand it from mere words alone, which is just as well, because listening is the best way to appreciate it- so please do!
Ridiculously lavish diversity in musical style, played excellently, recorded simply, wise words and heartbreaking melodies have been mixed together to make these songs.
The lyrics express the hidden workings of consciousness- a very feminine viewpoint in this masculine world- Isabel Aimee loves to deliver inspiring stand-points.
The musicians, Gren Fraser, Isabel Aimee, Charlie Bishop, Andy Lawrence, Jools and Clive Ashley deliver inspiring energy, sensitivity and skill.
If you want to find out about what is happening on your insides, then go listen to this music, Isabel''s writing has a knack of expressing deep invisible feeling things in a way that suddenly seems obvious.
Below is a short description from Isabel of how these songs came into being- perhaps they will serve as a little temptation to buy our album when it comes out at the end of November…!
Unspoken Words- written in my kitchen- whilst doing the washing-up! I was desperate to get a point across to my lover, who seemed to want to keep his whole spoken vocabulary locked up carefully in his head… Sung into a mini-disc player with a stereo sony mic, resting on the kitchen work-surface. We took it whole as it was and built the other instruments around the vocal
Gold- written in the bath (for a change! I do seem to like water don''t I?) as a present for Gren for his birthday. I listed all my favourite things about him, and piled them into the song. He then had to spend ages working out the chords….
Smiles on Me- written down as I debated how to deal with the lack of a real mother and father in my life. I decided to create the fact of an internal father and mother looking after me inside- using a song. That way it was easy to convince my consciousness that this was really the case as I sang it around the house!
Take my sadness away- well waddya know, I needed something to remove a huge burden of sadness resting on my heart. This song is a true prayer- it asks for a favour and explains the shift of how this can feel once it has been granted.
Isalone- written in 2001 as I was hopelessly in love with a certain producer in Berlin (nameless!) who just couldn''t reciprocate fully….. as usual I was alone and this was me accepting this ongoing state. We are all really alone.
This is Love- written in the cupboard-hole of a bedroom I was rooming in my mother''s house. Gren came to visit me and I suggested he have a go at the old piano (resting on my mother''s writing desk, he had to sit on the bed. I sat behind him frantically scribbling the lyrics as the song emerged spontaneously between us.)
I believe it''s Time- another simultaneous wonder! Gren and I composed together: he played on my piano in the music room at home, and I sang with the Rode microphone running… I made two versions of completely different words and melodies as Gren changed what he had first done in F major into G major. We still perform both versions.
Wouldn''t you want me to?-I had written a poem containing the first two verses of this song. Gren began to play something on the piano, I rifled through my lyrics folder and brought out Wouldn''t You etc. As I was singing it, I developed the melody and Gren and I created the form as he wrapped his chords into the shape of the song.
If you are real- written at a different piano- in a house in Butleigh, Somerset I was part renting; in response to the state of affairs in many men''s minds- unable to face their fears and emotional burdens, they lashed out upon me- The song was the soulution to make a positive out of the situation. The finished melody and lyrics written down were chosen by Gren as his first arrangement of one of my songs. He took it towards the Tibetan-influenced direction you can now hear, and I found it delightful to make up the ending after Gren had written the piano part.
Little Girl Me- a riff Gren had had kicking around for years and never taken seriously, he began playing the triply, watery ripply tune at a friends'' recording studios. I began to create the golden apples theme there. Over the next week, the song emerged to be where it is today. Andy''s base and Charlie''s drums completed the plot, till the song became our second favourite band song. It was also our first INSPIRITION song played on the radio- BBC Somerset with morning Jo who thought I reminded her of Kate Bush- way to go!
What''s The Point In Singing- now I had written this song in response to the Iraq war several years ago. Andy came in one day to rehearsal and in one of his rare bursts of song-writing fervour, he presented a beautiful riff and structure. I fetched my trusty folder, and, lo and behold, What''s the Point fitted like a glove- as though the two parts had been waiting for each in heaven previous to that moment. We are still hoping to hear more from the Andy Lawrence song-writing studio…..
City-I reflect with amusement on the origin of this song: Sitting on the Berlin Underground (where I used to live) this was the first song I composed without a piano on hand when I wrote it down- I had my trusty manuscript book with me and this little song would not stay silent, so I had to catch it and pin it down on the paper, trusting I could pitch the notes in my head. The song is a commentary on the state of city-folks'' lives- all rush and bustle with little reflection, enjoyment or beautific appreciation… the riffs popped up one day with Andy, Charlie and Gren bashing out their testosterone in rehearsal; I shouted "stop", rushed to remind myself of the lyrics in my folder (I had already made one version of this song which, with my co-writer Joker had been accepted onto a compilation album). We put the song together and it became our fast and furious rocker!
Pump-In- one day, I said to Gren, "let''s make a rock song!" he sat down (I stood up) and we began Pump-in- this became the favoured band warm-up song. I never knew whether it was the riff or the fact that the boys got off seeing me squirm in orgasmic ecstasy every time I sang the song…!
Laser Sharp- oops! My twelve year old daughter, Sandra said, " it''s about Daddy, isn''t it, Mummy"- to which I replied, " it''s for all those men who are cowards and unable to face the truth…"- look out for the next album, we''ll be having a song on it entitled, "I forgive you"- can you detect a progression there? This song came into being in a similar manner as the next one, I had the lyrics and melody all ready and boys (Andy and Charlie) began playing a riff… so I brought out my magic book and began shouting out directions as to length of choruses and structure as we all smashed out way through the song!
Call in Some Help- I wrote this in order to contact my angels, whose help I so desperately needed in my life. I thought, well if it works for me, it might just do the same for you?! Charlie decided to show off his brilliance and zoned out for the last third of the song- giving you the kind of ordered chaos, which I find so expressive at the end of the song. We jumped into funk territory for this one.
