JILL TRACY INTERVIEW...
Check out this interview with Jill Tracy by Liz Ohanesian over at the LA Weekly blogs! They even mention tonight's CAMBRE NOIR dinner tonight @ Citizen Smith with Paul Mercer, Nicki Jaine, Reagan Remy and DJ Xian!
"Think of Jill Tracy's music as the soundtrack for Union Station filmed in black and white during the eerie build-up to a startlingly romantic plot twist. Describing her sound as "the elegant side of the netherworld," Tracy has a voice that prompts images of spirits haunting art deco hallways and a knack for writing songs that unfold like the story lines of F.W. Murnau movies that were never made." Read more... - Thursday, September 20th
