Mettaphor music is nu-jazz - exuding either a lush, soulful lounge chill vibe or sax driven funk groove bop

Mettaphor generate the mighty sound of a class act with sensual production & sonic sounds of hip shakin salvation &
never ones to be caught in a time warp they are pushing the boundaries of live performance ensuring their show is loaded with heart.

Angelika Heinrich & Kaeleen Hunter – are mettaphor & having just returned from a 25 show / 6 week tour of New Zealand
 their gig guide often resembles a travel itinerary & they revel in the life of contemporary minstrels

On a mission to make feel good 100% original music forging a new path for women in music by embracing technology
& taking their studio to the stage via ableton live effectively putting a ‘big band’ sound on tour 24/7........generated by a duo!

Hunter & Heinrich continually reinvent their sound creating a unique amalgam of the articulate lyric merged with a sensual kindajazzgroove idiom.
The art is in their songwriting, musicianship & synergy as they have earn’t their stripes playing over 2,000 gigs around the world together.
Initially honing their craft on the circuit @ venues, events & festivals in Australia, USA & New Zealand in the acoustic singer/songwriter genre
influenced by some the best troubadours of the ‘90’s however ...secretly, they desired to morph into a band sounding like
the love child of annie lennox & prince or was it..... candy dulfer & john coltrane ....nina simone & neville brothers??

Currently immersed in their studio recording & producing their new album ‘a different kind of pink’ mettaphor are inspired by
the likes of miles davis, dig, st germain, lauryn hill –& in fact all things groove.........daring to go anywhere - ”pushing the steely dan envelope”
was a major compliment from a recent review & these women do it allevery single thing created in their studio.


Angelika Heinrich – plays the alto & soprano saxophones burning air like few other women playing horns then sings as a turbo charged angel
with an ease that defies. A rising hornstar she is recognized & endorsed by – www.temby.com – Australia’s leading brass & woodwind co.
& had a master custom alto sax personally delivered by Mr Temby himself. She looks like a superhero from an action movie & takes on
the frontline to rapturous reviews & brings an unlimited melodic repertoire to the mighty song writing team of mettaphor.

Kaeleen Hunter – plays custom maton guitars with mo pedals than the tourdefrance & is a total tek head logic queen who creates the sonic sounds
of mettaphor with a full bag of tricks beatz & mo apple macs than any girl needs! With a crack base studio & offering serious mobile recording options
with the recent addition of a mackbookpro - the fastest laptop in the world – to her enviable swag of go anywhere – anytime – roadcased
recording rigs loaded with Logic Ableton Live, BFD, stylus & trilogy groove engines etc – this is a force to be reckoned with
