Dark folk for the new Milennium is what Sharron Kraus does best. Her latest, "Songs of Love and Loss" falls perfectly into the dark hole of sweet melancholia. Sharron's been hanging out with bands Black Forest/Black Sea and Espers, and is about to embark on a European tour with Fursaxa. She's been snagged with guitar and banjo in hand, recorded live in all her dark glory for WFMU. |
