Mississippi_Queen

By the end of 1990 Vedran left the band, and from that period on, Pit took the lead guitar. The next couple of years, the band performs as a trio, but just one session was recorded in that period. Those tree songs came out as bonus tracks on the first album, "Golden years" in 1993. At that time, two new musicians joined the band: Gorana Cehic (fiddle, vocal), and Igor Balent (drums). This album features the first self-penned song of Mississippi Queen, but no record company showed any interest in it at that moment, so the boys produced it on their own. After a year, the drummer left the band, so they decided to proceed as a trio again. The next album, "Ten Years After" was recorded in 1999, with all cover songs, similar to what they usually played on concerts. But after a few years, the band got fed up with doing covers. They wanted to perform their own songs, and find an audience that would appreciate them. So the band started to write and the album "Did You Say Love" is now a fact. The CD was entirely recorded at the Lightning Recording Studio in Berlin, 2004.for Rhythm Bomb Records,with Ivan Semes-Sammy on the lead guitar.The things started to steam up for the band 'cause the critics were great,and the band took part of the festivals,and clubs around Europe.2008.Sammy left the band,and Axel Praefcke took on the lead guitar. With him, MQueen recorded new album, "Rock-a-Billy Heaven Bound" (Rhythm Bomb Records). After doing the 'Rockabilly Heaven Bound' album, Mississippi Queen changed its line-up once again(Gvozden Sopp on lead guitar, and Kruno Krapec on drums), only to get more versatile sound and be more attractive for international stages – with drums included, it sure was the right choice. 2016. is the year when their third official album for RBR is released 'Oh Yeah', songs that will again prove Mississippi Queen as the backbone of the rockabilly scene nowdays.
