Oh man, if I weren't so hung over I'd jump through hoops to go see Marla Hansen perform at Union Hall tonight. She's celebrating the release of her album, Wedding Day.
Who is Marla Hansen? You've probably heard her before and don't even realize it. She sings and plays viola for My Brightest Diamond, Sufjan Stevens, The National and even Jay-Z. With foundations as a classical violist, Hansen got bored with the classical world and began to explore other options in varied genres. She then landed jobs as a violist for an assortment of acts, which eventually lead to the birth of her solo project. On this album, her honey-hued voice weaves its way through plucked violas, bells, and guitars. Collaborators include Sufjan Stevens, Locksley, My Brightest Diamond, and Antony and the Johnsons.
