Original Press Release:
Neko Case, the modern day folk singer (and the soaring voice behind pop group the New Pornographers), is renowned for her beautiful alt country melodies.
Neko Case returns to Australian stages throughout January and February next year, to perform songs from her solo records.
The fourth and latest studio album from Case, ‘Fox Confessor Brings the Flood’, is lyrically reflective and self –assessing. The twelve songs on the dynamic release are playful and heartfelt and showcase her unique vocal talents. Her role as producer is profoundly felt, as styles, influences and sonic signatures from dozens of musical traditions thread through the new songs.
After leaving home at the age of 15, Case began her career as a drummer in punk rock bands The Del-Logs, The Propanes and Maow, and it wasn’t until the then 19 year old discovered an obscure spiritual album by Bessie Griffin and her Gospel Pearls, that she realized she wanted to sing.
“I was heavily into punk rock…but this record made me feel like, you know what, these people are singing about something they really care about. It’s like their voices are these crazy cannons or something, and they could just blow the shit out of their way with them. I wanted to be able to sing like that, because I thought that must’ve felt really good.”
And sing she can. After a long and ongoing role in The New Pornographers, Case began her solo career. In 1997 she released her debut album ‘The Virginian’, followed by the ‘Furnace Room Lullaby’ and ‘Blacklisted’, all praised by the critics.
2006 has been another big year for Neko Case, ‘Fox Confessor Brings the Flood’ is her best reviewed and highest selling record to date, she’s performed on The Late Show with David Letterman and has recently been nominated in 4 categories of New York’s PLUG Independent Music Awards, including Album of the Year and Female Artist of the Year.
Don’t miss Neko Case as she tours Australia with her band in January/February.
