About amelodicdaydream
Chris loves writting music...Chris meets Lnz...Lnz
sings...after a year of knowing each other Chris and
Lnz start writting music together...they don't know
how or why but somehow they also found magic...the
story of Chris and Lnz, of a Melodic Daydream...is in
the music.
"Primarily a duo consisting of singer Lnz Schilling
and guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Chris Newton, the
Denver-based A Melodic Daydream delivers an impressive
record with its self-titled debut. Newton's guitar
playing is lush and textured with an excellent sense
of both melody and dynamics. Schilling's voice is
powerful and commanding and blends well with Newton's
playing. A couple of highlights are the "Baba
O'Riley"-esque outro on "Psychopath Trash" and the big
chorus on "Fiddling With Nero," which is the record's
catchiest song. The band's sound might be too
middle-of-the-road for a lot of indie kids, but a lot
of young bands could use it for lessons in both
songwriting and musicianship."

"There is no way i can understate how fantastic i
think this album is, i know that music is subjective,
but this is one of those albums that in the way that
dido and kt tunstall do just appeals to everyone. From
the luscious and gripping Sharks to the beautiful
reincarnation, this cd just doesnt stop surprising.
Lnz Schillings voice is simply put, gorgeous and never
sounds the same twice: its so beautifully versatile
and warming that she sounds like an old friend telling
you a story. Chris Newton, on guitars and general
musical wizardry crafts the strongest song of the
album "Fiddling With Nero." "nero" is definitely my
favourite song of the album and was the first AMD song
i ever heard and each one since has not failed to
impress me. If you like your music to keep you company
and keep you smiling and reminding you about life,
then Chris and Lnz do this for you with one of the
best crafted albums ive heard in many many years."

"A Melodic Daydream brings a high-energy live
performance with the talent to back it up. Their set
is characterized by strong songwriting, moving vocals
and top-notch singing. This hard working duo is sure
to captivate any audience - Don't miss em."
(Jay Moneta-Toad Tavern-www.toadtavern.com)
"Edgy pop-rock that boasts emotional female vocals
with charged up guitar-driven rock-n-roll. A Melodic
Daydream shines with a mixture of stewed up classic
rock-n-roll, electronic rock, and pop. The songs cull
their inspiring cuts from the guitar whom has a great
knack for writing hooks but they really get the fire
under their bridges by their vocalist who can attest
to having terrific range and a full-bodied voice.
Nice."
