Sienn

SIENNÁ is a new electronica artist from Japan who is currently based in Norway. Found by ABON - a genuine multi-talent discovered by guitar maestro RONNI LE TEKRO (TNT, RYPDAL & TEKRO etc.) My music is relaxing but it rocks too, besides, you can dance in ambient land. It is a successful blend of experimental soundscape & ambience on housey dance/club-beats spiced up with blues/rock guitars & hammondish piano riff. My musical style is described as an “oriental version of GOLDFRAPP collaborates with UNDERWORLD & THE FUTURE SOUND OF LONDON”.

SIENNÁ was born in Kyoto, Japan in 1972. I have been musically active by singing and playing piano since I was 4. Her youth was filled with a plenty of Japanese electronic music like Y.M.O. & Ryuichi Sakamoto as well as 80s hard rock music. My deep interest in music and culture became a driving force for me to move to Norway as a student in 1995. Today, I have a bachelor degree (University of Oslo) & a master degree (University of Bergen) of cultural science. While I was still a student, there I met one of Scandinavias greatest producers/artists Abon, a discovered talent by Norwegian guitar legend Ronni Le Tekro (TNT, Rypdal & Tekro, Vagabond), who gave me a huge musical inspiration. With his assistance, I started to create my own musical style, which is quite "electronic". SIENNÁs debut E.P. :::Ambience::: is released internationally from Abon Records in June 2005.

I play live anywhere, together with two super-guitarists.

Ryuichi Sakamoto, YMO, Goldfrapp, Tricky, Future Sound of London, Underworld, Moby, Chemical Brothers, Abon, Towa Tei, Massive Attack, Robert Miles, Chicane

Every available equipment, however, my favorite brand has always been Roland & Korg.
