HRSTA

Mike Moya: Guitar, voice

Eric Craven: Drums, Effects

Harris Newmann: Rhythm section

Pronounced her-shta, is the brainchild of Mike Moya who, along with a

revolving cast of musicians, has performed under the name since 2000.

Hrstas critically lauded debut, L'eclat Du Ciel Etait Insoutenable, was

released on Fancy records in 2001. The bands latest release, Stem Stem In

Electro, features Eric Craven, Harris Newman, Genevieve Heistek, Beckie

Foon, and Sophie Trudeau. Hrsta harnesses traditional and otherworldly sound

as Moya sings lyrics cribbed from lost faerie tales in a voice that recalls

a more blissed-out Daniel Johnson or a less blissed-out Wayne Coyne. Moya

was a founding member of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, contributing to their

first two albums. He is also a member of Set Fire to Flames, Molasses, and

the ever-elusive Lonesome Hanks. Most recently Moya, Craven and Newman have

been performing in Elizabeth Anka Vajagic's band.

Eric Craven is half of the duo Hangedup, and has worked extensively with

numerous other artists of note, including A Silver Mt. Zion, Tony Conrad,

Sackville, Sixtoo, and Mitch Akiyama.

Harris Newman works primarily as a mastering engineer in Montreal. He has

released two solo albums of fingerpicked guitar under his own name, and has

appeared on recordings by Esmerine, Sackville, Hangedup, and many others.

CARLA BOZULICH

Carla Bozulich: Guitar, voice, sounds

& featuring members of Godspeed You Black Emperor, A Silver Mt. Zion &

others on stage.

Carla Bozulich is best known as the singer from LA-based band

Gerladine Fibbers and as the woman who re-made Willie Nelson"s Red Headed

Stranger - with Willie Nelson as a special guest. Carla has on of the most

unique voices in any genre. Her work is at once brutally raw and weirdly

visionary.

Born in New York City, she grew up a tomboy and girl protector in San Pedro,

CA. Carlas first appearance on record is Gary Kail's album from 1982 called

Zurich 1916, on which she does dada-inspired worldplay, you know, telephone

and vacuum cleaner stuff. She sang in a couple of groups- the Neon Veins,

and Invisible Chains, the latter of which recorded an album for The

Minutemen's New Alliance when Carla was 18 years old.

Carla disappeared from daylight for a few years, re-emerged, and was soon

causing traffic jams as the gamine howler in the confrontational sex/sound

assault outfit Ethyl Meatplow. In 1993, before Ethyl's last gasp, Carla

founded The Geraldine Fibbers, going on to record and tour incessantly with

that band until 1998. Scarnella followed, a duo formed with Nels Cline, and

a decidedly uncommercial, open, experimental project.

In 2001 she scored a Los Angeles production of Jean Genet's The Maids and

the award-winning feature film By Hook Or By Crook, which she scored and for

which she compiled the soundtrack, went to Sundance in 2003. That same year

saw the release of Carla's new rendition of Willie Nelson's Red Headed

Stranger. She has also explored mixed media and performance art, including a

commission for The Getty Museum in Los Angeles.

Extract From The Wire Magazine Sept 06 - Live in Berlin June/July 06.

"Carla's current release Evangelista is possible one of her most powerful

studio recordings, it still does not do justice to the dark passion of her

current live performance...........Out of a mass of shimmering harmonies,

the cutting drag of the viola & the shuddering bass feedback, Bozulich

led her group through the depths of her fiercely emotional & deeply moving

performance".

Rockin'! I've slipped Hrsta in a few times when DJing for you lot' date=' I'll have to leave their albums at home for once :D[/quote']

next time i go to one of your events, i'll have to listen better to what your dj is playing. if he's playing Hrsta & the like, that is pretty damn awesome & you are not likely to hear anything like that elsewhere at clubs about the city.
