Chinawoman


Chinawoman is an old pseudonym of Michelle Gurevich, a Toronto born, Berlin-based singer-songwriter / multi-instrumentalist / sound-engineer. She débuted with Party Girl (2007, self-released) and her latest Let's Part in Style (Feb 2014, self-released). Other self-releases include: Show Me The Face (2010) and a succession of pre-Let's Part in Style tracks: To Be With Others (Mar 2012), Vacation From Love (Feb 2013) and Kiss In Taksim Square (Jun 2013). Chinawoman's sound can be traced to the exclusive Russian-only clubs of Toronto, where men in silk shirts croon tales of heartache over bossa nova synth, and to the ballet school where Gurevich spent her youth, a spectator of melodrama set to Chopin. Songs are lush with 70's epic and/or Red Army Choir-style choruses, East-European melodies, restrained low-spoken vocals. They are predominantly written, performed and engineered by Chinawoman alone. The music may appeal to Streisand fans with an edge, European immigrants and their lost-in-the-world grown children.
