Carla Bozulich is an American musician based in Los Angeles, known for her work as the lead singer of The Geraldine Fibbers and as a founding member of Ethyl Meatplow. Her 2006 album, Evangelista, was released by Constellation Records, and is their first release by a non-Canadian artist. In the past year, she has also named her ever-evolving touring group "Evangelista" despite the fact that the only other constant musician is bassist Tara Barnes. In keeping with this change, Hello, Voyager and Prince of Truth were released under the band name Evangelista. (During their 2008 tour, keyboardist/sampler Dominic Cramp became a permanent member of Evangelista along with Bozulich and Barnes.) In addition to singing and composing music, she is known to play guitar and work with samples and sound experimentation. She was born in New York City.
[edit] Musical careerHer recording career goes back to 1982 where, under the name Carla Noelle, she contributed to a recording by Gary Kail called Zurich 1916, which would be released in 1984 as part of the album Creative Nihilism. She has since played with numerous bands including the Neon Veins, Invisible Chains, Ethyl Meatplow, the Geraldine Fibbers, Scarnella (a duo with Nels Cline, the name being an anagram of their combined first names), The Nels Cline Singers, Scott Amendola Band, The Book of Knots, the as-of-yet unrecorded band The Night Porter, as a solo artist, and as leader of the Evangelista project. Evangelista released the album Prince Of Truth on October 5, 2009. Bozulich has also formed an improvisational project called Bloody Claws with musician Francesco Guerri, with whom she toured Europe in the spring and summer of 2009. She has also contributed to recordings by Mike Watt (most significantly as a vocalist on four tracks of his album Ball-Hog or Tugboat?), Hadda Brooks and Lydia Lunch. She has performed live with Watt, as well as with Thurston Moore, Christian Marclay, Okyyung Lee, Carla Kihlstedt, Wayne Kramer, Wilco, Italian guitarist Simone Massaron (with whom she sings and provides lyrics on the 2008 album Dandelions on Fire) and many others. On August 16 and 17, 2009 she performed live with Marianne Faithfull and Marc Ribot in Düsseldorf, Germany as part of the 2009 Ruhrtriennale. Willie Nelson performed on her 2003 album Red Headed Stranger, a song-by-song cover of his classic album. Bozulich scored a 2001 production of Jean Genet's play The Maids as well as the 2003 film By Hook or by Crook (film), directed by Harry Dodge & Silas Howard, produced by Steak House. The Geraldine Fibbers' songs "Lilybelle" and "Seven or in 10," both cowritten by Bozulich, have been covered by Kiki and Herb. Bozulich has been asked to perform as a solo artist at two All Tomorrows Parties festivals, and at two Bad Bonn Kilbi festivals. In 2005, she performed Brecht/Weill composition "The Ballad of the Lily of Hell" at the Meltdown Festival in London, curated by Patti Smith.  [edit] Eyes for EarsBetween 2000 and 2004, Bozulich created three site-specific performance art pieces under the umbrella name Eyes for Ears. "Fake Party" (developed for Society for the Activation of Social Space through Art and Sound) took place at the Schindler House in August 2000; an event described by Bozulich as "new music dressed up like a party meets a social event disguised as art."[2] During the piece, the audience was treated upon arrival as guests at a party at the Schindler House. Guests were pulled from the "party" into a private room, where they were serenaded by Bozulich lyp-synching to old pop tunes, and eventually led into yet another party room. The intricate details of the event are described on Bozulich's web site.[3] A second piece Performance for Fever Dreams was performed at the Getty Museum of Art in February 2004. A third performance in the series was a guerilla sing-along featuring Bozulich and others at a train station waiting room in Glendale, California on Mother's Day 2005. Bozulich had recorded sounds at the train station for a previous project and decided to hold a free participatory musical event at the location.  [edit] Other WorkBozulich has written articles, short fiction, poetry and criticism for Alternative Press, LA Weekly, Ecstatic Peace, and Ben Is Dead. She has mentioned her desire to expand her short story "The Sparkely Jewel"[4] into a full-length novel[5]. Bozulich has also worked in the illustrative arts. [edit] Discography
