... New York-based artist My Brightest Diamond, otherwise known as Shara Worden. If you like the operatic bent of Antony and the Johnsons, then I guarantee you'll like My Brightest Diamond's output. Worden's voice is extremely enchanting and unusual, it seems to cast a spell on you. The music is similarly beguiling: a mixture of rock, classical, folk and the avant garde, it's a complex sound which takes a few listens to really bloom inside your heart but once established, has a deeply emotional pull. I came across this gorgeous video for the track 'Inside A Boy', taken from the 2008 album A Thousand Shark's Teeth on You Tube - it's so charming I wanted to share it with you all.
This was very beautiful I enjoyed it very much, also the animation. I dig on music like this it inspires me to write what I do. There is a Tori Amos feel to it as well as a Lisa Gerrard of whom I both adore. Thank you very much for sharing I will definitely be looking this band up.
