alternative country singer/songwriter Neko Case won a steadily growing cult audience for her smoky, sophisticated vocals and the downcast beauty of her music. Born in Alexandria, VA, Case moved around often as a child, spending the largest part of her youth in Tacoma, WA. She left her parents at age 15, and three years later she started playing drums for several bands around the Northwest’s punk rock scene. In 1994, she moved to Vancouver to enter art school, and simultaneously joined the punk group Maow, who released a record on the Mint label. She also played with roots rockers The Weasles, and eventually formed her own backing band, the Boyfriends, which initially featured alumni of The Softies, Zumpano, and Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet.
Case released her solo debut, The Virginian, in 1997, delving wholeheartedly into traditional country via a mix of covers and originals. She went on to perform with Carolyn Mark in the old-timey side project The Corn Sisters, and recorded with the Vancouver indie supergroup The New Pornographers, which she continues to be a member of. In 1998, Case completed her studies, and with her student visa expired, she returned to Washington and began work on her second solo album. The lovely, melancholy Furnace Room Lullaby was released on Bloodshot Records in 2000 and won high praise from most critics.

She was absolutely incredible in Tallahassee. Her voice is absolutely stunning. One of the best live performances I've seen, if not the best. Thanks Neko!

Neko Case, come on. Is there anything better? I put it to your judgment that there is in fact not such a thing in existence. Anyways... @PoorMonger...Nah, I wouldn't assume advertising would have anything to do with content on last.fm. If there is any one problem with this site, it is the album system.

I could've sworn I saw a banner ad for it on here just before it came out. figured that would mean they'd get it...

Holy crap, I'm legitimately stunned. She was in Atlanta in July, but with my June vacation I couldn't afford to go to Atlanta again just to see a concert. I really didn't think she'd come to Orlando and thought I jut wouldn't see her. I'm excited!! I think I'll go to Tallahassee too! :)

something different about this woman, even tough her voice "powerful" and bursting with energy waves and self confidence and i don't know... she is still soulful. i mean, i don't listen to this kind of music normally (tough i'm in search for something new so that's how i found her) i'll dare to say that what she is really doing for me is "being sentimental and still proud and strong?" i don't know, i like.
