Bio / Background
IMPORTANT: All profit from each sale will be donated to UNHCR.
One day in 1999, Doctor Oakroot rolled out of bed on a Saturday morning, concerned about the Kosovo conflict that was then heating up. "Not more ethnic cleansing! What's wrong with those jerks?"
Well, he pulled out his guitar and a cheap-o four track recorder and started laying down some basic tracks. "Bosnia", released by Oakroot's earlier band, Emrys, in 1996, was still appropriate to the current mess... but with more sadness than the anger that inspired "Bosnia", Oakroot composed "Never This Time" on the fly - bringing the ethnic cleansing against his own people into the discussion.
The recording continued with "What Does Your Fear Make You Do?" - a more general song which incidentally discusses a possible cause of violence. The final song, "Bosnujo", is a more uptempo version of "Bosnia" translated into Esperanto - the international language. (Final? well keep listening... there's a surprise).
