Anna Homler
The often-brooding lines conjure up dark images. Holmer whispers and seduces with her voice,
and the electronics state an eerie case on this unusually crafted recording.
It is disconcertedly bewitching.

NOTES
"Holmer is a Los Angeles-based performance artist in whose work visual art plays a central role.
In all of her work, Holmer creates a persona who expresses herself in a newly inveted language
that appears to be rife with tradition, ritual, ceremony and a culture all it's own.
The language is couched in lyrical and somewhat exotic melodies sung with a pure vocal style
sans vibrato, which gives the work an ambience of an authentic folk tradition.
Holmer's voice is pleasent and accurate. The delivery, ever so slightly nasal,
alludes to a non-western culture and might be likened to that of the now famous
Bulgarian women's choral Music."

".....a witch with a few home brewed spells an a ray gun....", "... a singer who can take an
audience by the hand and lead them along the weird path between atmoospherics and surreal humor."
