This is the fifth full-length release from West Philly-based solo artist TARA BURKE aka FURSAXA. Her previous album ‘Lepidoptera’ was made Underground Album of the Month in MOJO magazine.
Previously a member of the band UN, Burke is now one of the key players of the North American free-folk movement, along with such luminaries as JACK ROSE, CHARALAMBIDES, BEN CHASNY and the JEWELLED ANTLER COLLECTIVE.
With her hypnotic, echo-y churchbell chanting, Burke possesses a power-filled vocal sound that harkens back to those other polar queens of disaffected freakout psychedelia NICO and BARBARA MANNING. Fursaxa sounds like a tripped-out medievalist perched on a poppy petal. è Featured in the ALL TOMORROWS PARTIES half page ad in VICE magazine.
