At the end of the month Luna Paige will do a pre-new years eve show in Melkbosstrand. See the upcoming gigs for more information.

Luna Paige And Gerald Clark Collaborate With A Country And Blues Show - Don't Miss It!

FIRST SHOW AT THE MELTING POT IN MUIZENBERG (with more to come in Stellenbosch, Cape Town, Tulbagh, Durbanville, Rondebosch)

Both of these artists have been wowing audiences over the last decade! With powerful voices and a tremendous passion for what they do, they have managed to obtain loyal followers wherever they perform.

Luna Paige is known for her sultry voice, powerful story telling lyrics and beautiful compositions. Her performance varies with blues, jazz, country, pop, rock and reggae infused tunes. She accompanies herself on piano and acoustic guitar and has performed with some of SA's best session musos. With 3 album releases behind her, she has an array of songs that have been play listed on numerous radio stations, have been aired on television programs such as Going Nowhere Slowly, MK and have landed features on glossy programs such as Pasella, Artcha, The Power Within and more.

Gerald Clark is without a doubt one of SA's top blues singers. With regular gigs all over SA and invitations to most of SA's blues festivals, he is known for his foot-stomping renditions of classic blues tunes, the composition of amazing original blues songs and captivating audiences with his sexy and fun performances. He gained most of his experience as front man of the popular blues band Delta Blue and has been performing as solo artist for the last couple of years. This journey has ensured exciting collaboration with artists such as Albert Frost and many more.

Luna and Gerald have been partying and working together for many years and decided to put together a show- singing the blues and country. They will be performing their own original songs as well as doing their own interpretations of famous country and blues tunes and duets such as "Jackson" (Johnny Cash and June Carter), "Gone, Gone, Gone" (Robert Plant and Alison Krauss), "Bobby McGee" (Janis Joplin), "Don't mess up a good thing" (Ry Cooder) and much more. They will also be performing song "Right kind of Love", a duet, composed and released by Luna Paige as part of her 3rd album (Wonderful life) release in November 2009.

Desire

You are the fire
i like to feed
i'm always around like air
whenever you need

you are the lion
and i am the water well
on a lazy afternoon
where you can rest your soul

you're my desire (you hold me)
you're my desire (they told me)
you burn like fire (fire)
but baby i can't wait (surround me with your burning flames)

your burning flames

you hold the words inside
that i can never say
feel them coming alive in me
when you glance my way

you are the serpent
in the magic tree
feel resistance slither away
as your eyes rest upon me

you're my desire (you hold me)
you're my desire (they told me)
you burn like fire (fire)
but baby i can't wait (surround me with your burning flames)

your burning...
flames

Sunday In Japan

I'd like to spend a Sunday with you
somewhere in Japan
we can ride our bicycles
on distant mountain paths

I'd like to spend a Sunday with you
somewhere in the sun
with jasmine tea and blossoms
throwing shadows over us

Oh, you are the Muse
Oh, the mystical mountain
far away, yet powerfully close by
I'll never really know you or have you echo me
but I'll be dancing in your shadows...

That's where I'll be

I'd like to spend a Sunday with you
somewhere in China
we can take a slow boat
down an endless river

I'd like to spend a Sunday with you
somewhere in India
we can bath in holy water
and rise up in the fog

Oh, you are the Muse
Oh, the mystical mountain
far away, yet powerfully close by
I'll never really know you or have you echo me
but I'll be dancing in your shadows...

that's where I'll be

You Can Now Finally Buy The Latest Luna Paige Album At Stores

Being an independent artist is not always very easy. But I have found that it is possible to release your own album, do your own marketing, be your own publicist and handle your own distribution.
All it takes is a little (oh no! Who am I kidding?) - a lot of patience and heaps and heaps of perseverence.

After working on this album for more than a year, it took me about 3 months to get the album distributed.
Although the album is not available in all stores all over South Africa, you will be able to find it in your bigger malls that have Look & Listen stores.


The album is now available in Cape Town, Pretoria, Johannesburg, Bloemfontein and Durban.
I have compiled a list of all the stores that have stock of my album. Please take note that if you do not find the album in these stores, that you should ask for it at the counter.
If it is not on the shelf, it is sold out and the store manager has to order more.

If you are not the mall-type, I have distributed my album at 3 independent stores in Cape Town and Stellenbosch. I am still exploring possibilities regarding independent stores in other provinces and cities.
If you have any suggestions, pop me a mail please.

You can purchase the album online as well. At this stage you can buy my music at Rhythm Records Online. I am also in the process of exploring other online distributers and will keep you posted on that!

The Story Behind "wonderful Life"...

This album took me just over one and a half years to record. As independent artist who funded my own album and marketing (on a social worker’s salary!), I can honestly say – it was an interesting journey. One that was tough at times, but most definitely worth it.

Although “Wonderful life” is not the strongest song on this album, I chose it as the title track because it captures the essence of the album, or perhaps summarizes what I was trying to say in all the other songs on this album.

“Wonderful life” is about the light and dark side of life, the undeniable relationship between these two opposites, and how we cannot exist without either of them. It is about dreams and fears, restrictions and freedom, about truth and lies, addictive desires as opposed to love, about simplicity versus chaos, about venturing into the unknown vs staying where it is comfortable and safe, it’s about fantasy in a world full of harsh realities. “Wonderful life” is a promise to myself to live life to its fullest and to never be afraid of change and ones instincts.

I am almost sad this creative process is over. Luckily a new interesting time awaits me, which is exciting and scary at the same time – something I am quite used to by now.

Thank you for visiting this site, taking the time, being curious and showing interest in my music. I hope you purchase this album and that you find something in this album that inspires and touches you. I hope you love this album.

With all my love!

Luna Paige
