Why isn't this chick
signed to a major label? I caught her show at Acme Underground
a few weeks ago. This was about the fourth time I saw Sabrina
play, and she gets better every time. Her sensual,
spine-tingling gothic melodies bring to mind All About Eve, early
Heart, and Kate Bush.
Sabrina's in heavy rotation on the club circuit these days, and I
seriously suggest going to see her show. The live performance
is made up of most of the songs from her debut CD Euphoria,
my favorite being a song called "Bring Me Down" which Sabrina
said was the "bare bones version" because it was performed without
the violins and cellos that were used on the CD. But her band
is meaty enough to pull it off without the strings and I was
impressed. I was begging Sabrina for months to play that song
live and it was definitely worth the wait.
Sabrina is a lovely woman who never has a bad hair day. Tall,
ivory skin, Bettie Page bangs, and always in either black or red
leather pants, she's extremely charismatic on stage. She moves
like a snake, captivates the audience with her expressive eyes and
best of all, she smiles!
For '80s goth-alternative fans, there's a remake of B-Movie's
"Nowhere Girl" on Euphoria. And I'm desperately waiting
to hear this one live! She'll be playing again at CBGB's, 315
Bowery St., NYC on Wednesday, Nov. 6. Check out Sabrina at:
