Lenka Kripac by Lost At E Minor
It's good to hear that Aussie singer/songwriter Lenka Kripac is kicking around Los Angeles doing interesting things with interesting people. Her "breathy, strangely haunting Björk-style voice" [Rolling Stone, 2004] has been featured in Sydney band Decoder Ring for the past few years on the critically acclaimed albums Fractions and Somersault and now she's branching out to create atmospheric pop songs as a solo artist. One of her songs, "Follow," has been placed in Courtney Cox's new show Dirt. Catch her debut solo show in Los Angeles at Tangier, Los Feliz, on 9 February 2007.
