Chelsea Wolfe - Noorus (Live at MFNW)

While at MFNW 2012 in Portland, Oregon we put our heads together with director Greg Hunt and longtime festival producer Trevor Solomon to curate 'Room 205 live'. Held at venerable downtown venue Ted's, (formerly Berbati's Pan), the night showcased five featured artists from our collaborative Sound & Vision series Room 205. No elaborate sets and no second takes. Just 100% live shredding and raw weirdness. Enjoy!
BIO
Northern California native Chelsea Wolfe's sound is best described with broad juxtaposing strokes: elemental and intense, ancient yet modern, radiant, dark, intimate and expansive. Hues of black metal and deep blues inform her ever-evolving electric folk. Wolfe's voice haunts and soothes, revealing the unlikely truths and beauty hidden in life's darker corners. Whether stripped bare or fully backed, Wolfe and company carry a serious heaviness of sound offset by that ever-present counterweight: transcendence of spirit.

[@deadbird1229]

Thank you so much for this. I was at this show and only have a couple of crappy-quality pictures of memories from that night. I was in the front row right in front of her and was utterly hypnotized from beginning to end.

Patti Smith meets Courtny love without heroin or lipstick.

[@180FiftyFive]

Maybe just stop comparing artists. She's not Patti Smith or Courtney Love. She's Chelsea Wolfe and deserves to be recognized as that without some comparison or offshoot. Been listening to her for 10 years and there's no one that has her style at all.
