Krista Detor

With her highly acclaimed album, Mudshow
Krista Detor was established as a gifted player on the world stage. Together
with partner and producer, David Weber, she’s since released the follow-up
album, Cover Their Eyes (“One of the best albums of the year..” Revolver)
continuing to push the edges of genre while remaining close throughout to the
lyrical thread that defines her work.

She’s reached #1 on the Euro-Americana chart and her music’s been featured at the Cannes Film Festival, on NPR, PBS, the BBC, as well as countless U.S. and European National, Regional & Local radio shows. She’s appeared on both U.S. and European television and collaborated on the CD and Stage show Wilderness Plots, which has received rave reviews and will continue to tour
throughout the U.S. well into the future.

Recently, she was honored to be chosen to be a part of the Darwin Songhouse, with 7 other songwriters in Shrewsbury England, writing for 7 days songs to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin in his hometown.
The event, subsequent concert and live CD release were covered extensively by the BBC.  March 15, 2010 will bring the European release of Chocolate Paper Suites – Krista’s 4th solo album – a series of 3-song Suites each connected by theme and/or imagery, and inspired by the works of Lorca, Dylan Thomas & Darwin, among other thinkers, artists and experiences. The U.S. Release will be August, 2010.
