I met Steffen and Lisa from lisa vegas at the Kira & The Kindred Spirits concert at Pumpehuset, 18. February 2005. Steffen contacted me, as he had seen my Photo Site, and asked me to take some photos of his band.
I'm always interested in supporting talented upcommers, so I asked him to send a demo. So he did, and the 4 track demo contained some really interessting music on an unexpecedly high level for a non-professional band. Add to that the impression of two much kind and charming young musicians, thus it was hard to refuse the request.

The band got a notice of only two days to accept the invitation to play at the premiere night of Club Mini Vega, where established arists together with upcoming talents are invited to perform a brief acoustic set of new unreleased material, to do some covers or whatever they like. A splended idea and a big chance for unknown artists to reach a larger audience.
lisa vegas shared the stage with celebrities such as Randi Laubek and Thomas Dybdahl, and fellow upcoming artists Danny Goodwin and Dennis Mejland.

As the concept is to play acousticly, Steffen and Lisa re-arranged their usually electric songs in two days and we got a set of beautiful songs, very professionally performed by Lisa and backed by Steffen on lapsteel guitar in the beginning and his Gretsch guitar at the end.
Having heard their demo of electrified rock songs I must say: if you liked what you heard at Ideal Bar, you'll love to listen to the full band versions! I'm quite convinced that we face the very beginning of what is to become one of the great bands of tomorrow.

After the show I made a brief backstage photo session with the duo, which can be viewed at the bottom of this page.
Later this year I've an appointment with the band to make a promotion photo session with the full band (see here).

You can read more about this brilliant newcomers at www.lisavegas.dk, and I'm looking foreward to following their future career.
