Neve Naive

When Alexa &#34;Neve&#34; Voss and Stefan &#34;Merse&#34; Ulrich meet in 2008 during a jam session both are already fully equipped with tons of musical experience. Voss made some noise under the moniker <a href="spotify:artist:3ZqXNocGLSBgDcpM2QyQMS" data-name="Flinte">Flinte</a> as a singer (with the reggae band Jahcoustix and The Outsideplayers) or as a background singer (for Laith Ladeen, Culcha Candela, Flomega, Martin Jondo and Mellow Mark). Ulrich is widely known for his trombone playing with the <a href="spotify:artist:0nTErwSOllrcUWt3knOG2T" data-name="Jazzanova">Jazzanova</a> live band and The Ruffcats.

The chemistry between the two Berlin based musicians was perfect straight away. They meet more and more frequently in Ulrich&#39;s bedroom studio and start to work on own songs. Soon the original role allocations of who writes lyrics and who composes music blurs. From 2010 on, the masterplan for the new project NEVE NAIVE develops its form and shape. The duo wants to make cranky, free-spirited, but still accessible pop music that absorbs listeners with extremly up-close and personal lyrics.
Adult orientated music for people that refuse to grow up. A record like a good friend telling you tales of his life and adventures. Be it of a cheery, thoughtful or confindet nature - the main thing is its honesty and sincerity.
