Today I give you
Chinawoman who vamps us into submission with her gorgeous torch ballads. Chinawoman is a mysterious Russian woman who lives in Canada. Yes, mysterious. Her real name is Michelle but I much prefer Chinawoman. She's got a new album out, "
Show Me the Face" which I must say is one of my favourite albums of the year so far. It's a vast improvement over her debut "
Party Girl" and sees Chinawoman's sound (mostly music-wise) evolving. There are more instruments and a much more diverse selection of musical styles. Like the artist herself, the music is very mysterious and drags you into its foggy, dark world. I personally can't help but become engrossed every time I play it. Through it all, her voice remains the focal point with its same
deep self...I loooove her deeeeep voice.
Sample away...
The fantastic video for "Lovers Are Strangers":
You can purchase all her releases digitally here:

"
Party Girl" was also released on CD which you can buy at
CDbaby.
According to the Chinawoman herself, "
Show Me the Face" should be seeing a physical release in the near future. Yay!
