Lucinda Black Bear / Paul Dempsey February 10, 2011

Lucinda Black Bear’s first album “capo my heart and other bear songs” is a burst of sonic longing, a soulful fusion of cellos, feedback, loops, pianos, drums, and oddly tuned acoustic/electric guitars. Songs like “Capo My Heart” and “Fought the Bear” with their plaintive, understated Elliott Smith-meets Radiohead-meets-Chet Baker ruminations have attracted music lovers the world over, inspiring mad love from NPR, Prefixmag, and Paste. Recently featured on A&E’s “The Beast,” 2010 is gearing up to be LBB’s biggest yet with Album #2 coming soon.

Paul Dempsey is the singer, guitarist and principal songwriter of a hugely successful Australian band, Something for Kate. Dempsey has also always played solo shows and toured solo when not busy with Something for Kate as well as producing records for other artists.
