The USA is the source of meike koester's inspiration, and she has made an impression there herself. In June 2000 she performed as one of 21 participants (from LA, Chicago, N.Y., Boston, etc.) in the singer-songwriter contest at Eddie's Attic in Decatur/Atlanta, Georgia. This is the acoustic club where musicians like Ani DiFranco and the Indigo Girls got their start; meike koester was awarded Second Prize.
She has played in Savannah and Macon, Georgia and has performed with such underground legends as Kodac Harrison and Caroline Aiken. In April 2002 meike played the "Atlanta Dogwood Festival" and shared the stage with Kate Campbell, Shawn Mullins and lots of other great local and national musicians.
"angel", meike koester's first CD, released on her own label, earned critical acclaim in both the German and American press. Her second CD "soap for dirty girls", this time an all acoustic album, was just released. The tour in Winter 2002/2003 went through Germany, the northeast of Italy and Luxembourg. Her spring 2003 tour through the USA includes gigs in Georgia, South Carolina and California.
