Smart, quirky, talented and fun, REGINA SPEKTOR brings all aspects of her personality with her to the stage each night she performs. Now a veteran of the anti-folk scene, Spektor?s 2004 breakthrough album, Soviet Kitsch captured her at her finest; in one moment so pure you can hear the child screaming from inside her, while in the next worldly enough to be well beyond her twenty-six years of age. And ever worldlier she has become in recent years, trekking across the U.S. with The Strokes (and recording that amazing song with them, ?Post Modern Girls and Old Fashion Men?) and then traveling through Europe with Kings of Leon. It?s on club tours that Spektor finds her stride most powerfully, though, giving her audiences all they expect, and throwing in that sharp wit, those shy smiles and that winning personality as an added bonus. Regina has a winsome voice that brings to mind a more tuneful Bjork, and she plays the piano with some of Tori Amos? virtuosic intensity, demonstrates a knack for sweetly nostalgic melodies that are as sad-eyed as the smile she often flashes in photographs. Her lyrics teeter on the edge of preciousness without falling in; Spektor's cabaret shtick has an appealing honesty that can't be faked. Her anticipated follow-up, Begin to Hope will be released June 13th.
