New York-via-Moscow singer/songwriter Regina Spektor combines piano based indie pop with punk attitudes, skewed perspectives and fervent emotions. On Far Spektor worked with several multiplatinum pop producers including David Kahne (R.E.M., U2), Mike Elizondo (Dr. Dre, Eminem, Fiona Apple, Maroon 5) and Jeff Lynne (McCartney, Harrison, Wilbury, ELO). Far links the intoxicatingly expansive vibe of 03’s Soviet Kitsch with the idiosyncratic pop of 06’s Begin to Hope finding Spektor’s eccentric sound maturing into something uniquely her own.
