“There are no small emotions for Ms. Galás … She takes up fear and
rage, mourning and vengeance; her voice can reach operatic heights or
slice through a room with primal moans, shrieks and sobs.” —The New
York Times
Vocal virtuoso, pianist, composer and performance artist,
Diamanda Galás
is considered one of the most startling artists of our time for her
highly individual, operatic and politically charged performance
pieces, in addition to her unforgettable jazz and blues stylings. She
creates intense gospels of despair, desolation and redemption with her
multi-octive range, classical training and creative disregard for
musical genre.
Performing select dates in California this October, Galás will be
performing selections from the album Defixiones during her San
Francisco engagements and debuting material from her forthcoming
studio album Guilty Guilty Guilty in Santa Cruz and Los Angeles.
Guilty Guilty Guilty is scheduled for release on Mute North America in
2007.
