The San Francisco native singer-songwriter, Rykarda Parasol will be performing live at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco on December 12th. The Bay Area based post punk outfit, In Letter Form will be supporting Parasol along with the rock ensemble, The Lion's Den.

This show will be Rykarda Parasol's North American Record release show! Rykarda Parasol is a San Francisco native now living in Paris, France and perhaps somewhat strangely, signed to Warner Music, Poland! For the past four years, Parasol has pursued a European music career, along with her band in Warsaw. Recently she finished a Central European tour, which included the Waves Festival in Vienna, Austria along with Poland and several Balkan countries. Parasol just released her fourth album, the Color of Destruction, which she self-produced here in San Francisco at Room 5 Recording. A conceptual album, which touches upon facing one’s fatal consequence and whether they should choose to burn or to drown.

Well, this is going to be an awesome show as Parasol's voice and style are throaty, exotic and dramatic in all the best ways! Make your way out to Bottom of the Hill on December 12th!

Sultry, raspy voiced singer/songwriter Rykarda Parasol has returned to her native city of San Francisco from a long sabbatical of sorts, in Europe. Her grizzly vocal range is oddly beautiful and appropriate as she sings bravely honest lyrics, and carries a tune perfectly over acoustic folk pop music. Parasol sounds like a Bob Dylan and Lou Reed’s lovechild. Her style is a bit perplexing and will be cool to experience live.

She’s opening for uber famous Tele Aviv based Asaf Avidan who is a massive and breath taking talent. If you want to hear something different next month, and don’t mind being moved to the core, arrive at Bimbos at 9 o’clock to see and hear a great show. -je
