Who is Eureka?
Frank Bossert is a composer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer and ever-restless creative spirit from the far north of Germany. Having grown up in Hamburg, he has been working on his project „EUREKA” in his studio for more than a decade now. Under this name Frank has been producing CDs, ranging among the best within this genre, since 1997. Highlights from his albums can be found on major-label compilations next to songs by Clannad, Enya, Loreena McKennitt, Mike Oldfield and other celtic-music celebrities. The beginning stage of EUREKA albums takes place in the microcosm of the studio, with Frank playing and recording most of the instruments, from his striking guitar to drums, by himself. It is only during the final stage of a CD production when guest musicians join in, adding yet another level with their rather exotic instruments and vocal performances. The current studio work „The Compass Rose”, too, was a collaboration of nearly a dozen different musicians. This way, musical adventures arise, when flamenco guitars meet celtic flutes, Landsknecht drums arrange grooving races and keyboards melt with oriental percussion instruments, forming soundscapes rarely ever heard before. But the most important instrument in EUREKA is the guitar. Frank’s colourful, lyrical playing is the key to the unmistakable sound of EUREKA. At the moment Frank is working on the most exciting project his career has seen so far – a concept album "Shackleton's Voyage" dealing with Ernest Shackleton’s Antarctic voyage on the “Endurance”, which is released June 5th, 2009.
