Austin-Epremian-Weller present their second album titled “Who is to Know?”. Ten songs and two instrumentals showing their inimitable blend of Country and Rock sounds with Folk, Cajun and Blues.
Ray Austin: from Halifax, Yorkshire, in northern England, has been a driving force in the European folk revival since the early 70s. His 1973 debut album “You & I in Words” set the benchmark for four more LPs and various CDs. His warm, baritone voice, light fingered guitar style and his very personal song language formed his unmistakeable profile which has influenced many of his colleagues.
Johannes Epremian plays violin/fiddle, various guitars and sings solo and great harmonies. He was born into a German-Armenian musicians family and soon fell for the sounds of Louisiana: Cajun, Zydeco and Blues, which he very successfully presents with his band LE CLOU. He also works on both sides of the Atlantic as a solo-performer and studio musician.
Chris Weller is a very busy keyboarder who has successfully worked with Shirley Bassey, Jennifer Rush, Bonnie Tyler, The Temptations, Barry Manilow, Jose Carreras, Chaka Khan and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, London. He has also composed the musical scores for a great many films and television productions.
These three musicians have been friends, colleagues and musical partners for 40 years and have spent many, many hours together on stage and in the studio. This new album unites their musical joy and creativity with their very broad musical diversity and experience. One year after the release of their debut album “Written in the Night” they returned to the studio to record “Who is to Know?” which is another compilation of their many instrumental and vocal talents.
