THE LAZARUS ROSE

by

Led by Bulgarian-born singer Vlada Tomova and her Indie-rocking partner Chris Rael (of Church of Betty fame), the Lazarus Rose overlays Rael’s Sephardic family roots with Indian sitar, Hindustani vocals, and Bulgarian harmonies. Portuguese guitar, Turkish saz, viola, bassoon, and all manner of international percussion add to a deep, rich transnational concoction they practically dare you to write off as mere “fusion.”
