Crescent Moon - Music

The Trouble With An Artist Like Natccu Is Finding Words That Do Her Justice. Born Natsuko Sato In Tokyo Natccu Pronounced "na-Chew" Is A Singer And A Songwriter But Not A Singer-Songwriter. Her Music Is Dark-Edged Pop That Defies Easy Explanation. It's Multilayered Unpredictable And Deep Yet Instantly Memorable. And While She Is Largely Influenced By British And American Artists She Carries An Eastern Sensibility That Makes Her Music Utterly Unique. Best Of All Is Her Voice At Times Hysterical Filled With Dramatic Gulps Of Passion And Then Quiet Seductive Or Sweet But Always With A Measure Of Control That Is Dizzying. Natccu's Voice Soars Over A Bed Of Dirty Guitars And Tight Rhythm Singing Lyrics That Are In Turn Cynical Angry Hopeful And Beautiful. But No Amount Of Hyperbole Can Properly Explain The Wonder Of Natccu And Her Abrasive Yet Addictive Music. You'll Just Have To Listen For Yourself.
