Krista Polvere Launches Album in Oz

Long-time readers of this blog may remember me writing about Krista Polvere last year. This Adelaide singer-songwriter was hanging out in the USA with the likes of Ryan Adams and Ray LaMontagne while preparing her debut album Here Be Dragons.

Fast forward several months and the album is finally ready to be unleashed. And to celebrate, she’ll play a very special show with her band The Blacklist in Melbourne next week.

Krista will showcase songs from Here Be Dragons, including collaborations with Ryan Adams, and Grasshopper and Adam from Mercury Rev. If you like the sort of dark alt-country music Ryan Adams creates you’re going to love Krista Polvere. She’s playing at The Toff on Swanston Street on Wednesday 28 May. Tickets are just $12 at the door, which makes them absolute bargain in my books!

If you can’t make that show, or you just want to hear more, you can also catch Krista on the following dates:

4 June 2008 – The Corner Hotel, Melbourne
17 June 2008 – The Toff, Melbourne
18 June 2008 – The Grace Emily Record Launch, Adelaide
