About Me |
|
Born and raised in Russia, Lydia originally made her stand in the U.S. music scene as a lead vocalist and keyboard player for the Grammy-nominated band Bering Strait, which released 2 albums on Universal South Records and was featured in a "60 Minutes" episode, as well as a full-length documentary, "The Ballad Of Bering Strait". The band toured throughout the U.S., sharing the stage with such artists as Trisha Yearwood, Diamond Rio, Steve Azar, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Collin Raye, Wynonna, Phil Vassar, B-52s, Ricky Skaggs, Kenny Rogers, Kathy Mattea and Bela Fleck. Being both a skilled singer and a classically trained pianist, Lydia also generously lent her musical talents to other acts, in the studio and on the road; the most notable contribution was her appearance on “We Are The Same” by Kenny Rogers. While having developed an appreciation and love for both classical and country music, Lydia eventually found that when it came down to just her and her piano and her writing, she was tapping into quite a different musical place. Its flavor was adult contemporary, soulful, emotional and highly introspective. She was compelled to leave Bering Strait in 2006 to start searching for her own voice, not that of a singer or a player in a band but that of a solo artist. Between experimenting in the studio and playing live in a trio setting, she began finding it. Lydia has already dipped her toes in the digital world by releasing an exclusive online track entitled "Something So Right" in Dec. 2007 (the track is currently available for download at iTunes, Napster and Rhapsody). Stay tuned for her upcoming solo album! A note from Lydia: Just wanted to point out that "Something So Right" is an extra track that will only be available to my online audience and won't be included on the CD to follow in 2008. I released it to make waiting on the album a little easier. Cheers! :-) |
