歌手简介

简介：The project Briza unites David Arkenstone and Nicholas Gunn, two top names in the world of new age music. Hailing from Chicago, Arkenstone moved to California at age ten where he immersed himself in music. He played keyboards and guitar in a variety of bands and for a time after college, he criss-crossed the country playing the pop sounds of the day. As the synergy between computers and instruments increased, Arkenstone turned to creating his own sound, bringing together influences from World music, classical rock, and new age while incorporating many of the best elements from the "electronic world". Arkenstone has recorded nearly 20 albums and recently, his music was described as "Cinematic new age rock".

For his part, the British-born Gunn was classically trained, having studied at the prestigious Royal School of Music. His family relocated to Southern California when Gunn was in his teens and it was there that he played flute in concert bands and wind ensembles while learning drums and percussion for the marching band. Gunn's debut record released in the early 90s, proved a bestseller with many subsequent releases reaching the Top Ten on Billboard's New Age charts. Reputed to be one of the world's best selling flutists, Gunn has now recorded over a dozen albums and heads the Gemini Sun Records label. From Ambient Café, their debut as Briza, we have David Arkenstone & Nicholas Gunn and the soothing sounds of Splashdown!
