'Your hand in mine' is a band from Thessaloniki, Greece. Manos and George are 28 years old or something. They go up in the attic and make music. Just like that; i hope it stays like that.
Manos plays the wurlitzer piano, accordion, melodica, ukelele, electric bass, violin, accoustic guitar and pershephone. George plays the mandolin, accoustic and electric guitar, drums, trumpet and synth.
They became sort of speaking well-known and started establishing their own bonding when they wrote music for a silent film (Every Night Dreams) by Mikio Naruse, a japanese filmaker. The film was screened at the 2007 Thessaloniki International Film Festival and they performed live music during the screening. You can get an idea here, although the video is not of a good quality.
It is very difficult to describe their music. They do have a thing for Japan though. You can tell from their work, the music they wrote for the japanese film. Also their website and myspace acount is full of japanese cherry trees' blossoms. I suppose one of the reasons I am so fond of them is the fact that we share the same love for japanese cherry trees.
The most recent work is 'The Garden Novels'. You can order it here.
