Sananda Maitreya

Sananda Maitreya (formerly known as Terence Trent D'Arby) was born on March 15, 1962 and is an American-born singer-songwriter currently living in Milan, Italy. He is recognizable through his trademark voice resembling that of Sam Cooke, and the fact that, like such artists as Stevie Wonder, Todd Rundgren and Prince before him, he produces his own albums and plays most of the instruments. Since 2001 he has released 4 new albums + 3 live albums that are exclusively available on his official website. He presents his music as POST MILLENNIUM ROCK, its main elements are heart and soul, its nature is passion, courage and curiosity and it acknowledges no rules but the goal to lead the listener back to his heart, to provoke his mind and re-approach him to his true feelings. He says that he had his light switched on at the age of 2 by the music of the Beatles and has been a fool for music ever since. "I have suffered music and she has suffered me and there is no doubt that she has seen my willingness to bear her love even in the darkest hours and because of that we have earned one another's trust and our bond is close and deep. I would die for the music and in fact already have". He is currently on tour in Europe with his band The Nudge Nudge for the 'POST MILLENNIUM ROCK TOUR 2010'.
