Bernhard Drax is a Munich born and bred musician, composer and all-around radio guy in his mid 30ties. After a decade under the Califonia sun, where he wrote music in L.A. and reported for public radio in Monterey/Pacific Grove, he is currently living in his home town again, complete with American wife and dual citizen son. The homeland of Germany provides "bread & butter" aplenty but also has a sour taste at times for the former Californian exilant. This third album by Mr. Drax is more raw and immediate than his fans might expect. 13 songs, some of them orchestral and others with guest vocalist Sandi Strmljan are among the most authentic work this multi-talented artist has delivered so far.
