Natalia Zukerman, the daughter of classical musicians Eugenia and Pinchas Zukerman, found her musical self when she took up slide guitar. You can call her songs folk music if you like, but there’s jazz there too, and some sultry blues. She's a real triple threat who combines a unique slide guitar sound with some extremely seductive vocals and fresh original songs that tie everything together into a real, honest whole. Says Andy Friedman of the New Yorker of Natalia's multiple talents: "Natalia's voice could send an orchid into bloom while her guitar playing can open a beer bottle with its teeth." Natalia comes to Michigan with a new release, "Come Thief, Come Fire," of which she says, "I started making this record ... back in July, 2013 when I took some new songs to my good friend, collaborator, and producer Willy Porter, thinking we were making an EP of songs recorded live in the studio. ... But one of the songs, “What Comes After,” felt like it wasn’t done. So I sent the song out to my good friends AG and Meg Toohey in Los Angeles and the little folk ditty became an explosion of sound. Then AG and I went out to the desert ... and we made a video of the song ... and suddenly, there was a story unfolding. I realized that all the songs were centered around fire–its power to destroy, to resurrect, to light and ignite."
