Description

When San Francisco-bred Alexandra Starlight was only a teenager, she asked Blag Dahlia of shock-punkers the Dwarves—you know, the one who drenched two nude chicks and a dwarf in blood for the cover of his most famous album—to produce her L.A. garage-punk band the Holloways. Then she gained a bit of notoriety in her Runaways-esque group the Hollywood Harlots for Iggy-Pop-type antics, like running across the tables at one restaurant gig, eating off the audiences' plates and guzzling their drinks. So what's so weird about her latest project, Alexandra & the Starlight Band, is that it's so refined. She still has plenty of attitude, but it's been channeled into hooky, funky neo-soul, driven by her powerful vocals that are somewhere in-between Tina Turner and Amy Winehouse. - Steve Palopoli sanjose.com
