| Ute
Bonn, also known as Voicedancer, was born and raised in
Germany and has lived in the US since 1992. Raised in
a musical family, she was exposed to and explored music
from a very early age. As she was growing up, classical
and church choir music became her first musical exposure.
She remembers singing herself to sleep every night, making
up melodies and words on the spot, not knowing what a
rare talent she had.
Ute is a songwriter, producer, recording
and performing A Capella artist. She created her own
style of music, a uniqueness that colors each song.
She uses her unique wide vocal range to make her songs
come to life. Using multi-tracks on her albums to create
a rich and engaging sound - all one voice, she uses
a looping device to multiply her voice during her stage
performances. Her songwriting started to manifest in
2002, and since then she has written over 50 songs.
On My Own:
This is Voicedancer's Debut Album
as a recording artist. She has been influenced by music
from other cultures (Africa, Brazil, Native American....)
and created her own innovoative style. Calling it: "On
My Own" shows that she is doing this as a solo
artist, as one voice, A Capella. Her voice dances through
rhythms, melodies and sounds, and creates a bouquet
of original songs. Voicedancer (Ute Bonn) arranged the
songs, wrote the music, and the lyrics (except track
11).

Heartaches and Other Pleasures:
This album was released in 2005.
The songs on the CD (as the title already hints) are
about love, life, relationships - about the different
facets like falling in love, disappointment, anger,
sadness, letting go and being at peace - and loving
again. Ute has used the songs as her way to process
her own experiences. She surprises with her honesty
and her sense of humor that are reflected in these songs.
The CD is for everyone who is experiencing a hurtful
break-up and wants to work through, and for those who
have been through this in the past and have some 'leftover'
feelings....
