Marzanna – “Honey In a Goldmine” – [Siren Wire Editions]

lombard   6/17/2014   A Library, CD

Experimental artist Marianne Nowottny released this very limited edition (only 50 copies) solo CD on Siren Wire Editions back in 2013. On this release she uses the moniker Marzanna, which is the name for the goddess of death and winter in Poland. Strange vocals, keyboards, and odd vocal interplay are in keeping with her other releases. She’s been putting out music since she was a teenager and was always beyond her years. It’s hard to believe that it was nearly 13 years ago (November 2001) that she played at a KFJC Listener Appreciation Party at Homestead Lanes! Ethereal and strange, just as we’ve come to expect from this poetic musician.
