HAPPY RHODES - ECTOTROPHIA
CD (Compact Disc)
Label: NUMERO GROUP
Release date: 29/06/2018
Barcode: 0825764119924
Catalog no.: NUMCD0000199
Item ID: 461581
The first authoritative compilation of American dream pop artist Happy Rhodes, whose singular songwriting and four-octave vocal range emanated from the pastoral confines of upstate New York in the 1980s. Her melding of classical music influences with synthesizer and acoustic guitar, and her enchanting and idiosyncratic singing, are favorably compared to heralded English chanteuse Kate Bush. 'Ectotrophia' gathers essential songs from Rhodes's mid-'80s salad days, many written when she was just a teenager, wildly ahead of her time and unafraid to bare her soul to regional audiences, the ectophiles who'd eventually coin an entire subgenre of pop music in her honor.
Also available: ECTOTROPHIA (2LP) (LP).
