<< Previous in CD > ALL Next in CD > ALL >>

Your Price: $3.99
Living in an old house in SE Portland with her beloved husband, Jay, Rachel makes sometimes disturbing yet ultimately sensible songs, mostly on the piano. She's not a summer-lover and avoids the sun except on cool to cold days. She reads a lot and watches too much tv, and likes to meet strange felines on late-night neighborhood walks. -- -- -- She used to get out a lot more but worried frequently about going crazy. Then she had a nervous breakdown and was a hermit for about 8 years, during which she wrote a lot. She writes a lot still. -- -- -- Her music reflects a love/hate relationship with humanity and persistent awe at the beauty and horror in the world. Trying to capture that sweet and sour thing in a song is what she's mostly trying to do. -- -- -- She's sung and/or played for other projects, too, including Leigh Marble, Scotland Barr, Hurtbird, Jeremy Serwer, The Sort Ofs, Fear of Heights. She's a soprano veteran of Portland classical groups Cappella Romana, Portland Baroque Orchestra and Trinity Consort, and occasionally sings with Seattle's Tudor Choir. -- -- -- -- Some call her a mix of P.J. Harvey and Charles Ives w/ sprinklings of Randy Newman and Rufus Wainwright. A local critic dubbed her music "creep pop" and she adopted the label as a joke. -- -- -- Rachel was born and raised in Portland, Oregon.
