The Ninja Cindy's
Annie is an English born singer/songwriter. Whilst travelling around South East Asia she bought a guitar and learnt how to strum from random travellers and ended up singing her way around Thailand and Laos and writing songs for the guitar. Yorkshire born and bred Helen grew up playing the piano, violin and clarinet however her desire to play music did not spark until her very first guitar lesson two years ago. Inspired by her long term love of The Beatles and more recent influences from the musical community in Sydney, she has been singing ever since. Helen has now begun writing her own songs.The collaboration of these two fresh faced poms began when the girls met at a party on a boat on Sydney Harbour and soon realised they shared a mutual obsession with The Beatles. A number of barbeque jam session's later (and one infamous Thai meal) and the Ninja Cindy's were born

Influences span from Karnivool to John Mayer, and the result is an easily accessible and raw sound full of harmonies and incredible guitar sections that seems to keep crowds quite happy.

His time was spent capturing and mixing a more production style based music as the preferred method. Only within the last few years which has seen the addition of other people incorporated into the creative mix. Now we see the process of bringing the previously recorded sound together with the material shown in live performance."Feelings and emotions is what my music is about, perspectives on many aspects of living, as well as acknowledging the desires from within."
