k.d. lang is that rare performer who has matured before our very ears, exploring the
realms of country, rock and pop music throughout her nearly 30-year career. Winner of
four Grammy awards, k.d. lang returns to her roots with the addition of her new band,
The Siss Boom Bang. The group's album, Sing It Loud, is lang's first record made
entirely with a band of her own since the pair of albums with the Reclines that launched
her career all those years ago. Highlights from those early cow-punk recordings were
collected in 2006's Reintarnation while 2010's Recollection showcased the broad range
of styles she explored thereafter. Last year, as she celebrated the 25th anniversary of her
recording debut, lang found herself, yearning to hear country music at sound checks and
longing for the richly collaborative experience that comes from being part of a band.
Don't miss k.d. lang and the Siss Boom Bang, live at the O'Shaughnessy at St. Catherine
University on May 10.
