The
band Claire's Flower Shop has been growing much since
it was formed early 2002. It was formed when Jenn and
Liang decided to experiment with some of the songs they
wrote. Many ask why the band was named "Claire's
Flower Shop"...
The name "Claire's Flower Shop" was taken
from Liang's previous band, the name was conceived when
Liang and his cousin, Jared, were trying to name their
band. After the old Claire's Flower Shop disbanded,
Liang formed a new band with his church mates and the
new band needed a name! The name "Claire's Flower
Shop" seemed appropriate for the newly formed band
because the songs that the band first jammed were somewhat
on the melancholic side.
The
sound of Claire's Flower Shop would best be described
as indie-rock as the band's songs are not restricted
to a particular genre. Songwriters of the band, Jenn
and Liang have many musical influences. A few of Jenn's
favourite bands are Sunny Day Real Estate, Stavesacre
and Galactic Cowboys; these few bands do no justice
to Jenn's love for all kinds of music. Liang, like Jenn,
loves all kinds of music, he listens to genres from
classical to hardcore, a few of his favourite bands
include Sunny Day Real Estate, U2 and Thursday. These
bands mentioned are only a handful of the stuff they
listen to, both songwriters would probably give a never-ending
list if asked for the stuff they listen to.
