From the NPR blog:

“It’s not the years; it’s the miles.” “It’s not you; it’s me.” Combine those two well-worn phrases and you’ll have a pretty good grasp on Star Anna’s biting breakup song, “Through the Winter.” The young singer-songwriter exudes hard living, from her world-weary, head-turning voice and classic-sounding take on Americana straight through to her biting tales of love gone bad.

The twangy, angst-ridden “Through the Winter” chastises a spurned ex for his post-break-up bitterness, taking full responsibility for her part in the relationship’s demise while urging him to own up to the fact that it wasn’t working. In the process, she lands a killer blow or two. Read the whole story >

We are extremely thrilled to be featuring Star Anna in this year’s Siren Nation festival, Friday Night, November 6th, at the Someday Lounge. Read more about our music lineup.

It was a spectacular evening of song and music where were blessed with the talents of no less than 10 super talented ladies.
