Singer-Songwriter pure: Eurovision 2011

This past week culminated in Hedreich submitting one of her newest compositions to DRS3 to be considered for Eurovision 2011. Our favorite Swiss wanna-be is hoping to represent her home of choice at this year’s international event in May. Recorded in one single take, she shares with you an up close and personal version of the inspiring and dynamic “I’ll Go On”. Voting starts on November 3rd but you can have a listen beforehand on Mx3 or of course, directly on her youtube channel.

As the World Turns…


…the seasons change. The bare, funky stage clothes of Summer go to the back of the closet and make way for the wraps and boleros in muted tones of Fall. To kick off the season, Hedreich charmed the teachers and student body of the Primary school in Wädenswil with a workshop and concert incorporating all the k-6 voices as well as those of teachers and parents on hand for the week’s event.

And after a wonderful season’s end concert which was broadcast on DRS 3, this week finds her preparing for a post derniere appearance with the Swiss Army Band on Friday in Basel. Unfortunately for fans it’s invitation only.

And speaking of broadcasts, if you’re in eastern Switzerland, be sure to watch Tele Südostschweiz this Friday at 10 till 7 in the evening to see her Monday morning interview with Fabian Heer. Maybe you’ll even see her do “Song About…” live and unplugged!

“Song About…” and songs about…

While the new “Song About…” video is gaining popularity on youtube, Hedreich is spending every available moment composing songs about other things as well. Collaborating with Nubya for her upcoming project is turning up gold and you can look forward to getting an accoustic taste in the not too far off future. Additionally, Hedreich found herself teaming up with an unlikely writing partner, her 6 year old son. After his cameo vocal on Time Now’s “Sing My Song”, he has morphed into a junior songwriter. Let’s see whose album this song turns up on. Check back soon for details or stay up-to-the-minute current at twitter and facebook.

Happy August 1st, Switzerland!

As the fourth of July is to the Americans, so is the first of August to the Swiss. For our working musician, this “erst – auguscht” will be a working holiday. However, in keeping with the patriotic theme, spending at least a part of the day singing with a Berner, a Solothurnerin and a Zürcher should move Hedreich one step closer to being accent free. Stop back soon for the details or become a part of the Hedreich Nichols youtube and facebook fan community for the minute by minute updates.
Oh, and keep the grill hot. After all that singing she’ll be wanting to ‘get her eat on’…
