Room Eleven was a Dutch band, active from 2004 to 2009. Several members continued as Schradinova. ==History== Room Eleven saw its origins in 2001, when lead singer Janne Schra (born Janneke Maria Alie Schra) posted a note on Utrecht's Music College's message board seeking someone to write songs with. Arriën Molema responded, and they started writing music together. In August 2004, Tony Roe, Lucas Dols and Maarten Molema joined the group on keyboard, double bass and drums, respectively. That same year they played at Amsterdam's Uitmarkt. Their debut album, produced by Floris Klinkert and Room Eleven, was called ''Six White Russians and a Pink Pussycat'' and was released in June 2006. It was re-released in early 2007 with an additional bonus disc containing two cover versions of the song "Bitch", a new song called "Gray" and live versions of "Greenest Grass", "Sad Song" and "Come Closer". It went platinum. In the summers of 2007 and 2009, they were invited to perform at the Montreal International Jazz Festival. In April 2008, they released their second album, ''Mmm... Gumbo?'', featuring the string quartet ETHEL, which became a gold disc. In spite of having had five hits, Room Eleven split up in December 2009, announcing on their website that they ::"had decided to take a break, but it soon became clear that our ambitions were too different and it didn't feel as exciting as before. The chemistry and excitement we felt before on stage and in the studio was suddenly gone."〔(www.roomeleven.nl/news ).〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Room Eleven」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
