Chinawoman is a solo recording artist from Toronto. Her sound can be traced to the exclusive
Russian-only clubs of Toronto, where men in silk shirts croon tales of heartache over bossa nova synth, and to the ballet school where Chinawoman spent her youth a spectator of melodrama set to Chopin.

Songs are lush with 70’s epic and/or Red Army Choir-style choruses, East-European melodies and restrained low-spoken vocals. All songs are written, performed and engineered by Chinawoman, who plays all the instruments. The music may appeal to Streisand fans with an edge, European immigrants and their lost-in-the-world grown children, hipsters who don’t get embarrassed too easily, guys who secretly dream of a woman bossing them around, and the girlfriends of guys who secretly dream of a woman bossing them around.

Chinawoman self-released her debut album “Party Girl” in the spring of 2007. Moscow based label Exotica-Soyuz did a reissue of the album in the fall of 2008.
