Glister is based in the Blue Mountains, near Sydney. The band plays a range of guitar-based music, from gently layered intricate songs through to catchy up-beat melodic rock, all immersed in Samantha’s sparkling vocals.
As well as singing, Samantha also plays guitar. Mark is the main guitarist and songwriter, Chris is the bass player, and Troy beats the drums. Having played together since high-school, the band cite influences such as The Superjesus, George, Lisa Loeb, Madder Rose, Smashing Pumpkins, Something For Kate and Swirl.
Glister just released their first full length album, titled ‘Be There Soon…’ through somersaultmusic.com.au. It was recorded at Gangstar Studios in the Blue Mountains with Dave Dwyer (ex 1927) in the producer’s seat. The finishing touches were then added by mastering guru Don Bartley (of Studio 301 fame). The album was released in August this year, with the single ‘Waking Up’ released in 2004, receiving many positive reviews.
Glister have played numerous gigs, including local and city pubs, festivals and a few live radio sets. The band has been featured on some major compilation CDs in Australia and the USA. |
