December 2005: Cherry Blossom

L’Orca left for Cleveland, OH in the middle of 2003. The lyrics changed from Italian to English. The sound evolved gradually; from electronic drums accompanying acoustic ballads to electronic insertions and noises crossing the path traced by the words in the new work "Cherry Blossom", released in 2005.

The CD contains tracks dated up to the middle of 2004, and is presented in two parts: Indian Summer (www.myspace.com/thetreesindiansummer), with the acoustic imprinting of the origins, and Turning Leaves (www.myspace.com/thetreesturningleaves), strongly infused with electronic influences. All the tracks are stories of life. Indian Summer tells the end of a broken love story with the illusion to recover it before it fells apart - just like the few warm days that anticipate the cold winter. Turning Leaves are some girls catching fire and disappearing, just like the color of the leaves. There are also a few snapshots of English life, resulting from Leo's experience in the UK. The contact with the Cleveland music scene has had significant consequences on L’Orca's singing style and to the entire sound of the group. The work of L’Orca and Leo at opposite ends of the ocean, has led to a mix of different musical impressions and musical compositions, influenced by two different cultures.
