Xiren’s live band
is a dynamic 6 piece rock band with a violin sweet tooth. With a style
fusing classic with modern rock, he delivers the answer to, “What
if Sting joined Led Zeppelin?” Featuring some of the most dynamic
professional musicians in the business, the album work takes itself
to the extreme, and so do the musicians. With charisma oozing from
everyone in the band, the shows are as hot as the Bikram Yoga Xiren
practices; the music is as all-encompassing as Ninjutsu, the Special
Forces of his chosen martial art. It’s vintage concert energy
with a community-minded boost, and listeners of all kinds find themselves
sailing their bodies and minds straight toward the rock. Xiren, a name derived from Greek mythology
and Celtic lore, is a solo artist packing a counter tenor voice and a
lifetime of musical performances. Loaded with volumes of original songs
and talents as broad as his reach, he’s an example of earth-friendly
industrialism; he’s east-meets-west with a knowing grin and firm
handshake. His is new music, built to last, with roots in a Detroit garage
and branches spanning the Colorado Rockies and beyond.
In partnering with Ben Jansen’s gifted
musicianship and production acumen, Xiren is able to maximize his creative
vision and remain the driving force behind his self-engineered albums
and live shows. Xiren was born with the same kind of old-world resolve
and ingenuity his father embodied during his migrant journey to America,
and combines his work ethic, technological know-how and clever use of
resources to ever improve the quality of his work. He’s the impetus
behind Producer-NET, a volunteer corps of producers he assembled and
trained in the tradition of Moby, who once begged the question, “If
your friends don’t like your album, who will?” The result
is pure alchemy, the wares of which are his stage performances.
