Probably the first-ever virtual «alternative country-rock» band!

Born in Portugal, the brainchild of producer Paulo Miranda, the Unplayable Sofa guitar is a consistent sequence of songs, autobiographic, biographic or simply inspired.

Ranging in style from the dense/dramatic sounds of grunge rock into the floaty country ballads, this album includes never before attempted excursions through some of country music’s "untouchables" such as Frank King’s «Tennessee waltz» and Hank Williams’s «I’m so lonesome I could cry».

Ten original songs feature three new singers plus a large number of participating instrumentalists (three guitar players, four bass players, two drummers, one percussionist and one keyboardist).

Not to be discarded is the fact that neither of these ever met to date, not even during the extensive recording process (that took place at amp studio in Portugal) turning this into a virtual band.

No rehearsal ever took place to prepare any of the songs, all recording takes were the result of first impact of the song or/and lyrics upon the interpreters.

Plus, all the recording process was turned "upside down", that is, recording was done in reverse order; theme and harmonies first, vocals next, then bass and finally drums. No metronomes were used in any part of the recording.

The idea behind all this was to create a «live-blind» ambience, where all the music would be performed by feeling, no guidelines, no boundaries, nothing of the usual "restrictive" methods employed in normal record production.

The result is an innovative approach to either rock or country music, or whatever you decide to call this. An album, product of feelings and artistry.
