Since their debut in March 1997, The Miriam Dee Band has become one of the most exciting bands in the Gala scene, presenting four stars in their own right to front the band.
Miriam Dee
Lead Vocalist, Band Leader
Two and a half years as lead singer with the Pepe Lienhard Orchestra and frequently a guest vocalist with the Gino Todesco Combo, Cocktail & Dance and Champs Elysée.

Mostafa Krieger

Mostafa won everybody's heart with his Alphorn solo on the hit «Swiss Lady» with the Pepe Lienhard Sextett. He then decided to join the famous Kindli Combo.
David Feusi
Saxophone, Backing Vocals
David is well known with his band Final Source from the USA as well as Grandmother's Funk, Streetkids 99 and Funky Brotherhood.

Piano, Keyboards, Backing Vocals
As one of Switzerland's top keyboarders, multi-talented pianist Stefan also plays the brass parts when The Miriam Dee Band is booked as a quintett.
Beat Ramseier
Bass, Bass-Guitar, Backing Vocals
As much at home with a jazz quartett as with a classical orchestra, he was also a permanent member of the famous Jo Geilo Band.
Patrick Bürli
Lead Vocalist, Drums
Hot Latin rhythmes, great lead vocals at the same time ... Pat also handles the band affairs ... not at the same time.
The Miriam Dee Band is based on a quintett and can be extended with David, Mostafa and other renown musicians up to a nonett.

At the age of 6 I took my first guitar lesson, and soon after wrote and performed some minor classical accompaniments for the famous Swiss children's storyteller Karin Meffert.
2 years later my Dad took me on tour with his band and I discovered my love for the power of vocal and guitar expression.
When I was 11 I founded my first pop group "Limit". With self-written songs we sung ourselves into the hearts of the teeny population of Zurich, and, as the youngest band ever won the Swiss Newcomer Band of the Year contest.
A few contests later songwriter Denise Rich (who has written for Celine Dion, Marc Anthony, Anastacia and many more) engaged me as a studio session singer and I gained further valuable studio experience. I also picked bass in Switzerland's # 1 American Country & Western Band "SuperCountry".
But the most exciting time I spent as lead singer with one of Europe's best know big bands, the Pepe Lienhard Orchestra, who backed stars like Whitney Houston, Joe Cocker, Frank Sinatra, Percy Sledge and Candy Dulfer. After 2 ½ years, I decided to move on and formed my own gala orchestra, "The Miriam Dee Band". In March 2003 we celebrate our 6th anniversary with a remarkable list of references.
My career as a songwriter has also begun to develop. The TV documentary and IMAX movie "Ocean Men" has started its world tour early 2002. On the soundtrack CD is the TV title song "Welcome to Blue World", lyrics and performed by Miriam Dee, that's me.
And "Intervene" got released on the One Nation Under God - remembering 9.11 compilation in December 2002 and is available in all major record stores in the U.S.A.
The Miriam Dee Band performs about twice weekly for large companies and private events in Switzerland and abroad. Public concerts are rare. See some impressions of the band's great performances:
