Had an email alerting me to the March 2012 release of ‘Poles’ from Lonely Drifter Karen fronted by Tanja Frinta. Revisiting the 2010 ‘Fall of Spring’ and the 2008 ‘Grass Is Singing’ makes me look forward to more quirkiness in March.
You can check out three tracks from the up and coming album on their website.
