2014 and a seeking traveler’s journey is always a long one. On July 20th 2012 Astrid North released her first solo album „NORTH“ in Germany. And with this release her journey, search and story began a new chapter. In the 90’s and early 00’s Astrid was part of “Cultured Pearls” a well-known and very successful band at that time. They released 4 studio albums, one DVD and one live album. After almost 12 years their ways parted and each of them continued on in music.
