Name: Shilan Anderson

Interests: I love music and anything creative. I love nature, stories & myths and I love wondering about this strange thing we call life.

Musical Biography: It all began with the recorder in primary school. Later I moved on to playing the guitar to accompany my singing and be able to write my own songs.I also began to sing in bands during my school years. After school I manily focused on vocals and  got into playing percussions. In 2005 I met the hang. It was love at first sound. With the hang and my voice I started my solo project for which I also recorded my first album. I still perform mostly solo, but also  collaborate with other musicians.

Still, the hunt for magical melodies continues and more instruments have entered my life like the hammered dulcimer and the irish bouzouki. I don’t think that this quest for sound will ever find an end as long as I’m still here. There are simply too many beautiful instruments out there for one little life.
