Brooklyn's Lucinda Black Bear play carefully written folk rock with stunning sonic arrangements. Lucinda Blackbear's debut CD, Capo My Heart and Other Bear Songs, is a melancholy collection of songs that are expressive and moving. With Mike Cohen on bass, Kristin Mueller on drums, Chad Hammer and Clare Burson on violin, they paint lonely, deserted images with dark minor chords and complex melodies. The strings and acoustic instruments blend well with distorted electric guitar and subtle feedback.
