Springing from the electric performance art and music counterculture of New York City, Natasha Lady Krishna thrilled audiences from the start. It didn't matter if she was standing under a bare lightbulb at the infamous Wah-Wah Hut backed by an improvised band, or singing from an elaborate set at the prestigious La MaMa backed by guitarist David Chernis (Damnwells)- either way the result was an unforgettable show.
After relocating to Seattle, Natasha began collaborating with Will Hallauer (Turn-Ons) on a set of colorful, romantically-themed songs. To produce the album they enlisted Hallauer's bandmate Erik Blood (praised for the sound he's achieved with the Lights, the Charming Snakes, and the Catch) and in 2004 completed and released Meet Me After the Show. Notable shows in support of this album included opening for the Scissor Sisters at the Showbox theatre and playing the sold-out and raucous Hedwig and the Angry Inch '05 New Year's bash at the Crocodile Cafe.
In 2006 Lady Krishna and Will Hallauer were complimented by Joel Bergstrom (Black Nite Crash) on bass and Garrett Croxon (ex-Fleet Foxes) as drummer. The new lineup reunited with producer Erik Blood to record Hymn-Like Rapture and Pop Singles, a kaleidoscopic record with songs ranging from the serene to the feverish, from the romantic to the ominous.

Hi sweetheart! I tried calling you at home and at your Mother and Father's. Wo sind sie? I miss you. Rose was home for her 21st birthday and we spoke lovingly of you hoping your ears would burn and you would know it was us and then you would call us and we would have a tea party and play with the hens and know that all is well. The end.

In your esteemed opinion, which sounds more serious: boyfriend or sweetheart? I've accidentally fallen in massive like (the mutual sort, thankfully) with a British guy. Not sure what I'm doing, or what I should call him. AH! Sending love, Jesse
