PERSEPHONE

In the Summer of 2000 Sonja Kraushofer met Tobias Hahn for the first time. Tobias was the producer of the L'ÂME IMMORTELLE album "Dann habe ich um sonst gelebt" . Due to the creative cooperation and after lengthy talks the idea grew to get together for joint project, for which Dirk Riegert also played a significant role as song and text writer. Also persuaded to join were Wim Leydes and Martin Höfert who contributed a great deal towards the musical arrangements of the songs.
After six months of preparation and completion, the first album entitled "Home" was produced by Tobias Hahn and Dirk Riegert.
In 2004 Persephone released the album "Atma Gyan". For this album PERSEPHONE brings Matt Howden (SIEBEN) and producer John A. Rivers (DEADS CAN DANCE etc.) on board. In the end of the year 2004 Persephone released the album "Mera Sangeet Kho Gaya". It is a completion of the preceding album "Atma Gyan" both musically and thematically and together with the final concert of the year it forms the conclusion of an unusual concept around the mythological figure of Persephone.
The newest album, "Letters To A Stranger" is released in November of 2007. If you like deep and dark music, don't miss some of their live shows!
