Swedish singer/songwriter Frida Hyvönen will be releasing her new album Silence is Wild next Tuesday, Election Day, via Secretly Canadian. And just how she hopes that her sprawling vocals and enjambed lyrics will be enough to carry the whole album, she also hopes that performing in major East Coast cities will be enough to promote it. Perhaps these are the cities where vocally-driven piano stars are born?
While Hyvönen takes the day off from touring on her U.S. release date -- perhaps to let the political importance of it all sink in -- she hits New York, DC, and Philadelphia in the first half of November. And Chicago, just to shake things up. Chicago loves lady singers, too. Then she's off to Europe through mid-December.
