	Neko Case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Neko Case (born September 8, 1970 in Alexandria, Virginia) is an American singer-songwriter, best known for her solo career and as a member of the New Pornographers.

	ANTI- Artist - Neko Case
		Case’s work has always hinted at a uniquely skewed gyroscope at the center of the music: her songs at once playful and heartfelt, artsy yet unpretentious, and capable of shelving offbeat imagery inside of classic compositional structures.
		However, if Neko has always chosen the best of collaborative friends, what she reveals on the new album is that “the most tender place in my heart is for strangers”--a statement which may or may not have seeds planted in the transient nowhere-is-home years of her childhood.
		Neko somehow managed to survive on her own, and soon steeped herself in the re-emerging punk scene that roamed wildly between Olympia and Seattle, working at a series of rock clubs and witnessing firsthand the transformative power of bands like the Screaming Trees, Girl Trouble, and Nirvana.

	Neko Case Talks About Her New Album - Starpulse News Blog (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Case drew inspiration from disparate sources for 'Fox Confessor.' The title track, and some of the other characters brought to life on the album, are inspired by some of the Russian folk tales she has loved since childhood.
		Case hypothesizes that lead poisoning may have been the culprit, but she gives a less literal interpretation on "Dirty Knife," a delicate yet jagged song that features foreboding bowed bass and cello accompaniment by Calexico's Joey Burns.
		Case delivers one of her most stunning vocal performances to date here, kicked off by a rapturous a capella intro, which Case recorded in the stairwell of a nightclub in Toronto for maximum acoustic effect.

	Live Review: Neko Case and her Boyfriends / Auburn, the WISE Hall, November 8, 1997
		Mint Records confidently lets Neko Case, percussionist for one of the label's flagship acts, Maow, shine as a singer on her solo release, The Virginian.
		She announced that a new "Boyfriend," Carolyn from the Vinaigrettes, would sing with her on the first song, "Holiday Midnight." A very energetic two-steppin' tune with a zippy refrain, it was a great set-opener and brought a rush of people to the dance floor.
		Case seemed a little perturbed with the low level of her monitor speaker, too, and she seemed to be forcing her voice at times.

	Neko Case : Furnace Room Lullaby - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		But Case also has a couple more important things in common with lang -- she has a superb voice that's as big as all outdoors, and there's nothing at all ironic about her love for the luxurious sadness of classic country & western.
		Case fronts a dramatically revamped line-up of Boyfriends on her second solo album, Furnace Room Lullaby, and it's even stronger and more impressive than her fine debut set, The Virginian.
		Case's vocals are superb from front to back, as smooth and fiery as good brandy, and her revolving circle of musicians (including Ron Sexsmith and Kelly Hogan on backing vocals) are subtle and beautifully evocative, balancing sorrow and good times with an easy grace.

	Neko Case at Sasquatch! Music Festival
		Enigmatic Neko Case was born in Alexandria, Virginia and grew up all over North America, spending enough time in Tacoma, Washington to consider it her hometown.
		It was during her days as a drummer that Case made her first forays into songwriting, and then to singing, and once she started, she couldn't stop.
		Case approaches recording music like she might one of her visual projects -- she's a visual artist and art school grad -- with an instinctual internal compass and an open mind to experiment until it just sounds right.

	Neko Case Discography: Slipcue E-Zine
		Neko herself is frequently stuck in a Maria McKee-style yelping mode, not quite in command of her own vocals, and in some respects falls a bit flat.
		Case follows up on the Patsy Cline-styled neo-countrypolitan vibe she explored on Furnace Room Lullaby with "No Need To Cry." It's a nice direction to head in, though after several songs at the same moderate tempo, this disc could use a little variety in the pacing.
		It's a pity Neko Case isn't as prominent on this album; her keening vocals are well-suited to the band's treble-heavy style, helping push the songs beyond the same-old indie rock territory.

	Seattlest: Getting Wet With Neko Case
		Neko belted out one of her classics, "Deep Red Bells," one of the best alt country songs (whatever that is) ever written.
		Neko repeatedly thanked the Washingtonians, while some pulled out their Gore-Tex jackets, some dove under their blankets, and others huddled by the food stands looking for shelter.
		Case and her fabulous three-piece backing band broke tradition by telling the crowd that they would tune their instruments and get to playing so no one would have to wait longer than necessary in the cold and rain for more encores.

		Neko Case's third solo effort is a moody, atmospheric affair that both satisfies and mystifies.
		Neko Case is perhaps, along with Kellie Hogan, the most interesting and accomplished vocalist to emerge out of the alternative country scene.
		Case's voice delivers her songs with a lovely full-throated sound, with a hint of blues and just the right amount of "twang"...not so much as to be nasal, but enough to give it the right country sound.

		Neko Case: I don't really think that I'm in danger of being too well-known, because I'm not gonna be on TV, really.
		With a heart true to country, roots in punk and membership in alt-rock darlings the New Pornographers, 30-year-old Neko Case is a diva too large for labels of any kind (including the majors).
		Her Bloodshot Records bio describes her as "far and away the most photogenic member of the Bloodshot cast" and, while we mean no harm to others on the label, "photogenic" is a little too beauty pageant-speak to sum up this straight-talking chanteuse from the Pacific Northwest.

		Neko admits that she likes "collage-y, hybrid things." She's also outspoken, independent and indifferent to what others may think of her.

		Neko's far-ranging interests and eclectic tastes have a palpable influence on her personal sense of style.

		Former drummer for the pop-punk band Maow, Case is another in a long line of rock and rollers who have earnestly turned to country.
		Case is the queen of the No Depression movement, with her booming, diva-like vocals that bridge the gap between Patsy Cline and Chrissie Hynde.
		Case's 2002 release, "Blacklisted," was a haunting, 13-track trip through the singer/songwriter's feisty blend of melancholy twang.

		The unbridled power and raw passion of Neko Case is the antidote to the poison the world is offering me one sip at a time.
		Neko has worked with The Sadies a lot of her career, which now spans five records: The Virginian (1997), Furnace Room Lullaby (2000), Canadian Amp (2001), Blacklisted (2002), and The Tigers Have Spoken (2004).
		Neko is often and rightly associated with the Canadian music scene, but is American.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Neko Case: The Tigers Have Spoken
		Case is in fine voice, surrounded by a stellar assortment of familiar musicians and collaborators (more on them later), and everything just clicks.
		Case's chained-up tiger comes to a tragic end seconds into the song, but it's such a pretty, autumnal sort of song that you'll probably forget to be depressed.
		Case performs Loretta Lynn's "Rated X" as if she was trained by Lynn herself, though a lighthearted sixties pop sensibility works its way into the rhythm.

		NEKO CASE: I don't know New York that well, but I know this area really well because we've been lost here for the last couple days.
		CASE: My friend Andrew Berg was a fan of Ketty Lester, she had a hit with that song "Love Letters" a long time ago, and he had a best-of on CD.
		CASE: That has a lot to do with growing up in Washington state during the time when the Green River Killer was active, when I was in junior high.

	Ink 19 :: Neko Case
		It's arguable whether Neko Case should be putting out a live album this close to the beginning of her career, but there's no denying her power as a born performer.
		Case has been splitting her time these past couple of years between the power-pop supergroup New Pornographers and her Southern-via-Canadian solo gothic musings, both of which have given her voice a range most traditional country singers lack.
		Case's voice is in top form throughout, recalling Kristin Hersh in her Throwing Muses days.

		Neko is a major poet by any standard, a songwriter less interested perhaps in traditional narrative form than in distilling a pure moment of time.
		Neko Case's stock must be on the rise - I saw this CD on the "new releases" page of the weekly Best Buy ad, the page usually reserved for the likes of Christina Aguilera and Matchbox 20.
		There are two sides to Neko - the rockin' singer in the New Pornographers (whose popularity also seems on the upswing), and the countrified chanteuse of her solo albums.

	Neko Case: The Tigers Have Spoken - PopMatters Music Review
		However, Case is steadily becoming as accomplished a songwriter as she is a vocalist.
		Instead of the usual look back at the previous albums' worth of material that so many artists do, Case is much more adventurous, as this album has her covering several of her favorite tunes, performing a couple of older originals, and throwing in two brand new songs as well.
		Case's choices of cover material is inspired; among them, the swooning rendition of Buffy Sainte-Marie's "Soulful Shade of Blue", a chuggin' version of the Shangri-La's obscurity "Train From Kansas City", the beautiful Freakwater tune "Hex", and Loretta Lynn's famous mid-70s tune "Rated X".

		On this assured and inventive outing, Case does not disappoint, as she revisits the haunting atmosphere of earlier offerings, but also broadens her sound.
		If Neko wished, I believe she along with Buddy Miller could usher in a new Golden Age of country music and I'd be very happy.
		Neko and her freinds have produced a dreamy album full of evocative, genre defying songs.

		To help create this record Neko brought together a grand cast of scarily talented musicians; among them are Calexico, Howe Gelb, Kelly Hogan and members of The Sadies.
