From the early days at the Nutbush Rock Festival in Ypres up
to the gigs at the Spirit of 66
in Verviers and the Sounds
jazz club in Brussels, Globalys had
a repertoire consisting of Rock Classics. Only after did they start working on
their own songs.
A demo CD was released in 2001, a
showcase of the band’s writing skills. The first album is in preparation.
The
various musical backgrounds of the band members converge at Globalys because of
the common interest in their chosen style.
The style
A kind of rock in which
adventurous structures are composed of contrasting atmospheres. Melodic themes
alternate with carefully constructed rhythms. Therefore a song will consist
most of the time of a succession of various sung themes and instrumental parts
which are either dreamy or energetic.
The influences Many.
The musical background of the various band members go from funk and
easy-listening to rock and progressive, including jazz-Rock, space-Rock, bossa
and reggae.
The
purpose Exploit the various influences and let them take their course
by diverging from the traditional schemes of pop and rock music. In this way
the band tries to develop its own musical timbre.
The gigs
In the early days the gigs consisted of covers only, serving
as the band’s apprenticeship and making it into a strong team. These days, own
compositions make 75 pc of a concert and covers play the "encore".
The CD
“Demo 03.02.01” A story
with an unexpected turn.
