That Avant Garde Accordian Again

If you're up for adding something new to your musical diet, go check out the Russian songstress Evelyn Petrova. She's not your average singer and she plays a mean accordian. Evelyn played "Mother Goose" with Jethro Tull during their concert appearance in St. Petersburg and impressed the lads. Here's what Ian Anderson has to say about her:

" Frank Zappa meets Valkyrie Handmaiden-on-testosterone. Banshee wailing over complex chording and lightening melodic ripples. Big, powerful, yet often delicate and feminine...She will assault your ears, heart and soul in short order and redefine your perception of stark femininity at its most primitive level." Heady stuff.
