World Minus One

Female fronted Milwaukee, WI band, World Minus One, is another one that you hardcore Rock Band Network users may have heard of.  About two years ago, I downloaded their song "Still Alive" to my Rock Band song list.  The lead singer, Sara Brauer, really caught my attention.  Her voice has a deep, throaty, Billie Holdiay type sound.

I, apparently, am not the only one to notice her vocal ability.  I found out that in 2011, she auditioned for American Idol and received the golden ticket to Hollywood.  A major accomplishment for any vocalist!  To see a picture of her, you wouldn't expect the sound that comes out!  Very talented young woman!

Another big merit to the band is the amazing guitar and keyboard work.  The band has a rock core, but there are hints of electronica and industrial sounds in the mix.  The guitar gives the band its signature rock sound, while the keyboards come in and change the sound again.  Each song evolves as the track plays longer!  I'm not much of a wordsmith, so it's a hard thing to describe.  It's definitely something worth checking out though.

The band has two studio albums, "Now or Never" and their newest one "Shadows Remain".  Both are available in their entirety on Spotify if you want a free preview!  You can also check them out on YouTube  Follow the links below and see what's up with World Minus One!
