About Me



Named one of the top ten artists to watch in 2008.
-Seattle Sound Magazine.

There are a lot of dark torch singers in this shabby world, but none more velvety and atmospheric than Trentalange.
-Skratch Magazine

The first solo album by Crooked Fingers alum Barbara Trentalange bridges the gap between Portishead's Dummy in 1995 and a post-meltdown sound of the future. The Seattle-based singer and multi-instrumentalist, who wrote and recorded all of the disc's songs, takes the moody, hypnotic quality of mid-90's trip-hop and adds an art-rockish urgency that pays a bigger debt to Kraftwerk than to Roxy Music. The result is twelve magnetic songs in minor keys that are a far cry from your older sister's goth records.
-venus magazine

Photo Album is a powerful and affecting work by any measure, but as Barbara Trentalange's debut solo statement, it is an astonishing achievement.
-Amplifier

This is a inspired work, the sort of album that will sound better five years down the line. Gorgeous, strong and unwavering. I'd put it in a vault to save, but I just have to hear it once more.
-Aiding and Abetting

Photo Album of Complex Relationships is a triple threat of strong instrumentation, lyrics and vocals. The album's 12 tracks incorporate Trentalange's unique and oftentimes haunting voice woven into diverse instrumentation of strings, piano and strong percussion lines.
-Daily Tar Heel

It is not solely the music that makes this a great album, but her vocals, as well. They are haunting, yet soothing at the same time. At various, points listeners may feel as though they are hearing the laments of a fallen angel.
-Daily Aztec
