It is this fine line that the young alternative rock band Summery Mind, led by front singer Lari, manages to walk: It is a harmonious connection between a hard, metal-influenced rock sound and sensitive and melodic – not to say poppy – vocals that Summery Mind creates, without falling into the old established clichés of these two pop music poles, as so often happens.
Formed in Bad Salzuflen at the end of 2006, the band made their breakthrough in the regional music scene with their first demo CD, "The Last Light," and also attracted the attention of Cologne radio station 1Live, which named Summery Mind Newcomer of the Month in January 2009. Summery Mind delivered their debut album, "About Dreams And Reality," released in June 2011.
Her single “May,” whose video has already reached well over 20.000 views on YouTube, was also very well received and was placed on the radio station WDR2 and the music TV channel iM1.
Summery Mind offers the opportunity to delve deeply into their music, sharing their own personal experiences and thoughts with their fans, and aren't afraid to occasionally tackle socially critical topics. The band is multifaceted in many ways, and even at first glance, it's noticeable that more than just the singer's voice provides contrast, as the rest of the band is made up of men. However, this isn't about shining a spotlight on just one person; it's about the perfect interplay, the contribution of each individual, the shared, ambitious goals, and, of course, the joy of music... the bigger picture, so to speak.
"Thanks to some quite metallic, brutal riffs and a first-class singer, Summery Mind exudes a very unique scent that needs not fear comparison, not only nationally." (RockHard, April 2012, #299)
