Crane was founded by singer Sascha Mathys and guitarplayer Philippe Antognini who went to a period of musical disapointments in different rock-bands before.
The idea of Crane was to create a relaxing atmosphere on a popsong, based on a simple structure. There should be no limits on the musical direction or style.

Crane was founded by singer Sascha Mathys and guitarplayer Philippe Antognini who went to a period of musical disapointments in different rock-bands before.
The idea of Crane was to create a relaxing atmosphere on a popsong, based on a simple structure. There should be no limits on the musical direction or style.
After a few jam-sessions with keyboarder
Philip Henzi and other former band-members of the jazz-funk combo"jean-Pierre",the recording-sessions of the first ep took place.
"The legendary style ep"came out in 2003.
The style of Cranes music was classified by critics as sophisticated pop-music.
For the recording of the "november sessions" the band changed their line up and replaced the rythem-section of Simon B on drums and Chris Moore on bass by Thomas Wild and Mauro Zompicchiatti from the famous "Schmetterband".
The new single"Yellow fields", containes a beatiful string- arrangement, composed by Philip Henzi and played by Lorenz Hasler, member of the classical string-quartet"I salonisti".
Crane is still searching for a record-label to bring out the complete album of their
"November Sessions".

hey Crane, what a great song you got there with "awake". Reminds me a bit of Lenny Kravitz, but nevertheless cool stuff! Alltogether nice music and once more astounding that such high quality music gets nowhere in this country. What standards do they have here ??? .. anyway... By the way, I grew up with Tom Wild, in the same building in Berne, as young boys we used to jam in the cellar space 'till the tenants got mad. I even bought Tom's racing bicycle as a young lad. Hey guys, keep on doing what you do, it's good!
Kind regards, Rob
