machineri was formed in 2008 by Sannie Fox and Andre Geldenhuys.
The band is a 3 piece consisting of two American Fender Stratocasters (Sannie and Andre), Drum (Daniel Huxham) and Lead Vocal (Sannie).
The sound is predominantly Blues-Rock as well as distorted, layered and riff-driven.
Some influences: John Lee Hooker, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, The Black Keys, Jimi Hendrix, Chopin, Ali Farka Toure, Paganini … and many
Many MANY MORE : )
Sannie writes the songs and lyrics while the task of arranging as well as instrumentation is undertaken by herself and Andre.
The song is then worked in the jam room and further explored with drums as well as extremely loud volumes before it is either recorded or performed for any audience.
All demo recordings as well as backing tracks are engineered and recorded by Sannie.
machineri has recorded two singles, The Searchers (inspired by the John Ford epic cowboy classic starring John Wayne) and Machine I Am as well as two accompanying music videos directed and produced by Revel Fox and edited by Robin Kress. The audio is engineered and recorded by Paris Lucas at Fish Hoek Studios.
Tracks by machineri have been used in the score for the feature film Long Street due for release on South African cinemas this year of 2010 in September.
The film stars Sannie Fox, as well as her mother and the iconic singer Busi Mhlongo and is directed by Revel Fox.
