Skyebat
Stephanie Batailler was born in the French Alps near Switzerland (ever heard about Yodeling ?), she studied History at the Sorbonne in Paris & Film at the New School University in NYC. She came to music by writing lyrics for songs to be in her short films. After many viewers and friend’s requests who loved the song Step on the Moon from her film Trip to the Planetarium, Stephanie decided to give it a try.
Writing a novel, a script or lyrics it’s the same, it’s about telling a story and communicating emotion with the audience.
Adding to the fact that I strongly think that “We encounter more Aliens on Earth that in Space” .. = Skyebat is born from that belief.
Skyebat combines Pop/Rock/R&B/RAP/Bossa Nova because we have a Worldwide Spirit, after all Skyebat is a real New Yorker band !!!
Most of the Music for Album Year 2051 was composed & performed by Kennan Keating, multi platinium producer. Except Step on the Moon music composed and performed by Peter Calandra and Kennan Keating and Catch Up music composed by Theo Eastwind and performed by Kennan Keating.
Album Year 2051 is featuring Rapper Beneficent Robinson on Catch Up, Love isn’t complicated & One Day.
Why choosing to write each song combining English & French ?
At the beginning I was torn between writing the songs in English or French. I lived in NYC for the last 11 years, so I speak & write English every day more than I speak French now. However, depending on which kind of story comes into my mind, my French comes back. So after a while struggling, I realized that I didn’t have to choose one specific language to write the lyrics for the songs, I just had to let the story leading me. Eventually, words came out very quickly by themselves and we just completed in December 08 our first album, Year 2051, 4 months in the making!
Skyebat plan for 2009 :
1. Tour in NY-US-Europe-Asia
