notes
Heidi Saperstein rode the new millenium in as a solo performer, having spent the previous decade in bands whose makeup was predominantly female before such aggregations became commonplace. Five of those latter years were spent in Shiva Speedway. Heidi's original guitar contribution to this edgy rock band blossomed into additional duties as its songwriter and featured singer. Their album Psychic City came out in 1999 on Rainbow Quartz Records.
Even "solo" Heidi rarely goes it totally alone. On stage she can often be seen with Daniel Coughlin of Come and Throttle, whose drumming accompanies her guitar and voice with great empathy. Numerous other musical guests embellish her Kimchee Records debut, The Devil I Once Knew, with cello, mellotron, piano, and trumpet as well. There's an earthy brazenness of sentiment in Heidi's work, achieved in the mix of her "knowing" voice and downbeat guitar explorations, but she just as effortlessly takes flight in irresistable vocal reaches and harmonies. Although not always easy, the music of Heidi Saperstein is never less than enthralling.
