One evenig Elizabeth said: „What about recording some music that sounds just like what we would love to listen to! what we like, “ That was way back in 1985, when Peter and Elizabeth started to create some music without vocals in their then still small studio.

Instrumental music with lots of guitars was way uncool in those days. But it felt right for the artists and set the course for their future work.

Nine CDs, more than 100 000 downloads and 700 produced tracks later, Blue Star are successful independent Artists with an own label.
„Hot Interaction of Mr. Guitar and Lady Hammond“, wrote a critic.

Stellar guitar, melodic like Santana / Peter Green plus a touch of U.S. - Soulblues a‘ la Larry Carlton meet groovy Hammond lines in the style of Jimmy McGriff but also Gegg Rolie (Ex Santana) Emotion and playfulness are the main ingredients. Live drums live peacefully beneath loops and samples.
Peters Les Paul, ES 335 und Gretsch White Falcon are the main guitars. Elizabeth plays a 1963 Hammond C3 with Leslie, Rhodes and Wurlitzer Pianos.
Atmosphere is the keyword that makes this music interesting for musicians and non musicians as well.

Listening to Blue Star for the first time, it takes a while until you notice that nobody is singing. The instruments tell their stories and nobody misses vocals.

The more quiet albums like Himalaya Suite (1997) and Blues (2003) are relaxed, almost meditative, but without the new age grease.

Cds like Ritual are more on the hot side.With live drums and percussion really cooking, this studio album has an almost live feeling.Whatever album you listen to, it will always sound like Blue Star

Since February 2005, Blue Star live and play in a small village near the Bavarian lake Chiemsee. Peter and Elizabeth are fascinated by the beautiful scenery, the mountains and lakes and the gentle people.

This definately influences the music: "Looking out of my studio window lets the creative juices flow"; says Peter."I'm hit by new melodies and ideas at an almost insane pace. Of course a new album is on the way. Stay tuned!"

And the new album Feels So Good was released in February 2007.
