Exclusive Country Routes Q & A with Saskia Vese!
Hi Saskia, thanks for talking to Country Routes
For DJs and our readers
seeing your name for the first time may immediately conclude you are from
Eastern Europe.
Can you explain where
you were born, where you live and what your names derive from?
Saskia:
I'm
English with French blood from my great grandparents x4 generations back. Born
in England – Doncaster, UK. My name
Saskia means Saxon woman - Woman of the world. It can be seen as spelling Saxia
from the Saxon. It is said to be a Russian name. Latvian.
Vese is a French name. And
also been proved there is some Irish blood from one of my great grandfathers
who was a tinker , way way back. He
moved to England in the olden days starting a life here in the UK.
My
grandfather (my Mums father) lived in Durham, in Newcastle. He fell in love
with my Grandma (my mums mum ) and then moved to Doncaster. My grandparents
both spoke a little geordie and used to call me a “wee bern” when I was little
. You could always hear their accent in their voice, even though they moved to
Doncaster in their early 20s.
What were your hopes
and expectations for your debut Hotdisc single “Say Hello”?

However, if I use my skills in breaking it down with the beats of the music, like in my dance classes I would be able to work out all the intricate bits, and the beats.
I
have always been very good with timing naturally, due to my background in
fitness classes. As I used to teach a lot of moves into one record lol. My piers
would ask me to uncomplicated it. I would say ' no! Please concentrate harder :). And get on with
it!
So, I felt my experience helped me work it out how I was going to attack it.
So, I felt my experience helped me work it out how I was going to attack it.
I
tried to perfect Say Hello in every way I could. As recording original materiel
was new to me and I wanted to give it my all.
Did you feel both
excited and a little nervous about how your Say
Hello single would be received by the 700+ DJs and media across the UK,
Europe and worldwide?
Saskia:
I don't expect miracles from the Hotdisc. I like being a part of something and
taking part.
As “Say Hello” was your
first original song and single. What was the experience like and biggest challenge
recording the song in a studio?
Saskia Vese: Studio Recording in Castleford |
Saskia: With Say Hello being my first single, I decided to break it down quite a lot, like I used to my dance routines as an aerobics instructor. I thought to myself ' I don't know how to record an original song, in a studio. However, if I use my skills in breaking it down with the beats of the music, like in my dance classes I would be able to work out all the intricate bits, and the beats.

work it out how I was going to attack it.
I
tried to perfect Say Hello in every
way I could. As recording original material was new to me and I wanted to give
it my all.
The
biggest challenge for me was recording it in the studio making it into my own
song with feelings of my own to add to the song without messing it up and not
disappoint my producer.
The
experience of recording Say Hello on
the studio was exciting and it felt like home. It made me focus and concentrate
very hard. I didn't know I had a recording voice at all until recently.
Did you go through a
lot of songs in the selection process for “Say Hello” as a new single?
Saskia:
Yes, went through a lot at least 10. I had to record the verse and chorus of
them in the studio! My producer and I listened to them one by one. We then
chose together. It was between Say Hello
and two others. One of the others is now my single out now Good Girl. Which chose the name
You received airplay
for “Say Hello” by high profile
British Country Music Association committee members and radio presenters to
positive comments. How did it make you feel?
Saskia:

Music, Fashion,
Modelling, Photography and Dance are all forms of art and professional skills
that you possess. Do you find those skills cross over with role play,
presenting a live music show and do they give you a certain confidence?

Saskia: Indeed, all my skills help with my confidence on stage and when I'm under pressure in the recording studio.
When I'm recording a new song my record label is very strict, and we will take as long as it takes to get the sound right for every single line of every verse and chorus.
In my gymnastics background I was a country quad competitive gymnast. So this is where my balance and focus came from .
I
then applied it to my biology studies and college x4 A levels. Which I trained for to become an international
aerobics fitness instructor. I passed
all practical and theory tests with the constant push from my parents.
Family Background, Influences and what inspires you with your music and writing??
Saskia: My dad also wouldn't let me talk to my friends on the phone as it would put me off my studies.
From
there I went onto doing more than 20 qualifications with Reebok. Where I taught in Germany and UK.
Reebok
power step was my ultimate favourite as there were strong moves which had
sounds to them ! Like oooo and ugh
very loud.
So,
I like the expression of the sounds the moves and the powerful delivery. Along
with the dance which was incorporated in the routines.
Fitness
and dance routines was my life. I trained most days. After work. My full-time
job was personal trainer - aerobics and dance instructor.
I
think the performance and focus side all starts from my parents. Dad was second
seed in table tennis in the UK.
So,
I trained with him a lot. And he even gave up some of his training to train me
in gymnastics. As he believed I would make it.
My
dad now is a golf professional. He plays golf every day in Spain and competes
for trophies at 71 years old. He looks like James Bond Sean Connery with he's
trimmed beard. Very handsome.
My
mum was in arts and crafts with children and she was in charge of a golf club
where she managed all the place usually 7 days a week. Mum is the reason I
stick to my passion. She beloved in me from the day I was born.
My
aerobics dance classes used to have
40-50 people in every week for years. So I was used to performing on a stage.
This has now been all good. As I'm natural when I'm singing on stage and feel
like it's my home
My
mum mainly inspires me. And sometimes the loss of people I love.
What music are you currently listening to?
Saskia:
I'm listening to
The Shires, Ward Thomas, Shania Twain, Dolly Parton, Olivia Newton John, Johnny
Cash, Kenny Rogers, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette, sash dance Music: David Guetto,
Kelly Rowland & Beyoncé.

Genre:
Country/ Indie & Alternative
This raunchy and rocky number with its tight deep bass and driving axeman
licks and back beats certainly packs a punch from the get-go on a
uptempo-charged questioning song which finds the female protagonist wrestling
with her inner emotions and demons.
The first verse suggests that the sweety Good Girl is fatally attracted to a cheatin’ bad guy or possibly against her will mesmerised by the evil look in his eye. He takes advantage, it makes her high but is tossed aside resulting in floods of broken-heartsville mascara infused tears.

The gritty and spit-fire lyrics can be a bit hard to decipher in the mix but once you do it’s enough to turn any sane man into a hot mess with heart-pumping sexy lines that leave little to the imagination:
A cowboy
knows to saddle me up, The skin of his hide on my thigh near my Stateline, Oh my,
he got love in his gun
As tension rises these is a cry for
help and escapism. The sweetheart desperately reaches out to her “mama” to assist
in discovering “Mr
good guy” and treat her right - All I
want is a real fine time
Apprehensive to start a fresh she patiently
waits for her classy, gentle immaculately dressed “sweet sugar bon bon” to
enter her world, satisfy her monetary needs who’s a “must for her eyeline”! But
will he tick the boxes and service her desires?
On a track with lots of hidden naughtiness, trouble quickly looms, there’s a twist on the love highway as she craves for that wild “good time ride”. Has the Good Girl an in-erasable wicked streak fatally attracted to Mr. Bad Guy? It seems so!
It’s reminiscent like the model she is, Saskia mirroring
the characters role, looking into the photographer’s lens, can at the drop of a
cowgirl hat switch from lovely, sweet and innocent to mean, moody and positively
naughty!

Bottom right: Mr T'ography (Ian Trundell (Mr T)
| Facebook)
|
Can the woman sit tight and ignore those wild hot sensual “bent fender on a Chevy” advances?
As
Saskia strains to reach for those off-the-scale high notes in the turbulent
gripping undercurrent of the track it points to a passionate lady struggling to
deal with her feelings, clinging desperately to an inner strength surrounded by
a hurricane of crazy human-love-potion chaos. The lady has to love herself and
be comfortable in her own skin before she is ready to break free and belong to
any man: You gotta get it good get it
good good get it good
There’s
a tendency to suggest perhaps the singer is a little overpowered in this
challenging musical landscape. It would be great if single No3, from the
Doncaster singer, is a deep soulful country love ballad embracing lower
register notes thus allowing fans the opportunity to uncover a true quality
that lies within. Think more Shania Woman-In-Me-esque vibe than a Carrie “Something
Bad” one.
GOOD GIRL Lyrics
A bad boy has a look in his eye
Leather and boots and the stench of the
moonshine
He cheats like a cool dude would
Does whatever he wants to get me high
A cowboy knows to saddle me up
The skin of his hide on my thigh near my stateline
Oh my he got love in his gun
Dear mama help me find Mr good guy
And all I want is a real fine time
Chorus
Waiting in line for Mr Good Good guy
You gotta get it good get it good good get it
good
And would it be like?
A sweet sugar bon bon
You gotta get it good get it good good get it
good
You gotta get it good, yeah yeah baby
What I need starting over again
Is the hand of a man coming home with his pay cheque?
Tend me like a good guy should
Do whatever I want and treat me right
A stetson not a pickup truck
The look of his tux is a must for my eyeline
Yes, Ma’am he do sure look sweet
But Oh brother I do really miss a bad guy
And what i need is a good time ride
Chorus repeat
And Down this long love highway
A bent fender on a chevy he’s a wild one
And if he calls you baby
Sit tight coz there’s nobody home now
Oooooo ur yes yes yeah
Chorus x2 higher
Ya gotta get it gud geddit good

When
this is released, with three commercially released singles in place, with the
aspirational target of 500 downloads
still in place this will now determine which music video will be created. This will be based on which of the 3 original songs is the most popular

deal was Saskia had 18 months to get the downloads over the 3 songs to secure
the album project, this is no longer the case.
