Product Description Vera Takes The Cake is an 11 song full-on ride, taking you from sexy fluid trumpet laden songs to upbeat, rockin', Latin-style rhythms to hip hop undertones beneath the harmonies and compulsive lyricism of Ginger Leigh & Sarah Dashew. Review "A Blessing on your Heads-" JF, Austin, TX -- on-line Review, JF, Austin, TX"The production [of Vera Takes The Cake] is exemplary, and an artistic balance to striking harmonies, and exquisite melodic relationships." -- on-line Review, A Leben Oif Dein Kop"Vera Takes The Cake is an incredible piece of music! It hasn't left my CD player since I bought it..." -- KP, online review About the Artist The Ginger & Sarah band is headed by two women, backed by two boys (drums and bass)...this band will surprise you with their on-stage presence; never too cool for their own good, always a little humor involved, and sexy body movements to take the music to higher levels. A must-see, must-hear show! A couple of years ago, when Ginger Leigh & Sarah Dashew were doing the solo thing, they met at a music event, improved a few songs, and it stuck! They began touring on a whim, and recording, and it has been an up-hill experience. Now on their second CD together, they play with a solid funky rhythm section which serves aa a foundation for their intricate lyrics, groovin' on-stage dancing and the way they manage to adlib harmonies and funk! Rock-n-roll, not folk, not Indigo Girls... People often say their shows are like a mixture between Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, Bette Midler and Ani DiFranco...they sing out, thick, loud, big voices. They entertain with smiles, eyes, asses and love love love. The recorded music is a mixture between funk backbeats and gospel harmonies with acoustic instruments. But then you'll be surprised by a heart-breaking ballad filled with live strings and percussion. It's diverse, positive music. This band has a lot to say. Band Members: Ginger Leigh & Sarah Dashew, lead vocals and guitars; William Landin, Bass; Ian Bailey, Drums. See more
