Rainbow Sleeves - Painted Songs

Eddie Nünning is a genuine master talent when it comes to groove and song accompaniment. His command of orchestral play is unique, and he has a special knack for atmospheric arrangements and polished technique. Eddie Nünning’s new duo “Rainbow Sleeves” with the young singer Lara Schallenberg forms an intimate dream encounter providing an entire universe of possibilities for guitarist and singer. The repertoire of “Painted Songs” is well chosen: besides classics from the singer/songwriter tradition (amongst others by Neil Young, Elton John, Lennon/McCartney), it features more current songs in new garb (e.g. Silje Neergard, Prince, Tori Amos). Eddie Nünning’s textures woven from acoustic guitars with a discrete guitar synthesizer carry Lara Schallenberg’s voice, which varies from girlish to erotic. Together, they add a new, sensual element to the guitar/vocal duo genre.
