Forthcoming album in January 2023. More on www.salinegrace.com.
Established in 2005 by the members Ricardo Hoffmann (vocals, guitar, piano, organ, banjo, concertina, percussion) and Ines Hoffmann (bass, guitar), the Berlin based band Saline Grace from their very beginnings have been surrounded by deeply sinister fascination.
Indeed, on the one hand they combine the nightmarish or jazzy accentuated scenes of a David Lynch with Nick Cave-like raging and the philosophical poetry of a Leonard Cohen, but on the other hand creating pictorial synaesthesias they raise nightly panoramas from imaginatively enraptured roadmovies and give not uncommonly a premonition of those mystical moments of the American band The Doors.
Saline Grace’s intentionally antiquated arrangements, mainly consisting of a mandoline-like guitar, twang or slide guitar sounds, bass, piano, organ and drums, draw marvellously attention to singer and songwriter Ricardo Hoffmann’s emotional baritone.
