She has just moved from Los Angeles to London, and makes some beautiful music (one song of which has lyrics penned by Neil himself). http://www.myspace.com/olganunes Particularly recommended for fans of Halou, Lamb, Land Of The Blind and other "ethereal ectronica" bands. Alas it doesn't appear that she has an official release, but it looks like she might be working on one. - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2008 12:00:40 -0700 (PDT) From: Tim Jones-Yelvington Subject: Re: Olga Nunes meredith wrote: Hi, I'm embarrassingly behind on my ecto reading, I know!

But there we both were, at the Cat's Cradle, Christine beginning the show with just herself on keyboards and a cellist. Later two guys from The Weakerthans (the band she's touring with) came out on guitar and drums, and she played ukelele on a song or two (including "Not Wanted on the Voyage." She played for about 40 minutes, mostly stuff from the new album (tracks 1-4,7, 8,10,11,12) and "Souvenirs" and "Double Takes" from Paper Anniversary. It was all really good. As rich as the album even though less orchestrated. I felt like I really paid attention to and appreciated the lyrics, more so than when listening to the albums at home, which is strange, because in most concerts I find I notice the lyrics less. She didn't talk much between songs, though she made mention of enjoying North Carolina's spring and how Winnipeg probably had 2 or so more weeks to go until spring arrived. The crowd seemed to really enjoy her, and there were quite a few people who obviously knew the record which seemed to surprise and amuse her a bit. All in all a good night. There's one more show listed on her tour page - May 16 in Regina, Saskatchewan. Catch it if you can. JoAnn _________________________________________________________________ Going green?
