Epitaph

Neko Case is an American singer-songwriter born on September 8, 1970 in Alexandria, Virginia. With her own record label since 2001, Neko has established herself as a prominent figure in the music industry.
Known for her powerful vocals and heartfelt lyrics, Neko Case has captivated audiences worldwide. Her unique blend of folk, country, and indie rock creates a sound that is both timeless and contemporary.
With numerous critically acclaimed albums under her belt, Neko continues to push boundaries and redefine what it means to be a singer-songwriter. Her passion for storytelling shines through in every song she writes and performs.

neko case's last album, 2006's 'fox confessor brings the flood', achieved that rare plateau where critical acclaim meets commercial success. along with her work in pop darlings the new pornographers, neko's string of extraordinary releases has brought her that iconic status where an artist can forge an uncommonly deep and meaningful bond with her audience. neko's many fans hang on her impressionistic lyrics, classic pop harmonics, and luxurious voice, and her new album, 'middle cyclone', revels in all three. with neko's indefatigable touring band (guitarist paul rigby, bassist tom v ray, vocalist kelly hogan, multi-instrumentalist jon rauhouse and drummer barry mirochnick) building the bedrock of the tracks, case was able to bring in a collection of friends and fellow travellers including m ward, garth hudson, sarah harmer, and members of the new pornographers, los lobos, calexico, the sadies, visqueen, the lilys, and giant sand. from the ragtag 'piano orchestra' that drives the phil spector majesty of 'don't forget me,' (one of two carefully conceived covers on the album) to the guitar / vocal intimacy of 'middle cyclone,' the new album represents both a continuation and a profound leap for neko case - the fusing of her longterm themes of nature vs man into a shining lyrical broadsword, like the one she wields on the extraordinary album cover. "things like animals and nature, they're located in the tender receptor of my brain. i'm just now trying to come to terms with the notion of loving people as much as i love those other things - because i grew up in a way that made me love the one but not the other". for fans of: bon iver, alela diane, new pornographers, wilco, joanna newsom, jolie holland, lucinda williams.
