Sounds LikeBreathtaking vocals Musician, winter 2007

...Shepherd’s compositions are highly original and sensitive........ Delicious dissonances sit within tight vocal harmonies. Yiddish or Slavic-style melodies ebb and flow. And here and there we hear a classical vocal style, something more operatic, or a flourish of a music theatre. Instrumental styles are just as varied: Jewish musical modes weave together with a klezmer-sounding clarinet, jazz-style saxophone and bass or rock guitar.

Hi Polina,
Amana & I were looking @ your site, so she could see some photos of you and hear your music...funny we had just previously put you in my top friends on myspace and noticed that I was in your top mates..when did you do it?

I have had a very stressful experience this morning with my ex...hey that's why she's an ex!!

Can you send me your mobile number via normal email?

So we can have a quick chat.

Lot's of love,

Max & Amana.
