ZEENA PARKINS is the world's greatest electric harpist. Forget about
angelic choirs; Zeena cites Jimi Hendrix as a major inspiration, and
her harp work is similarly explosive, often blurring into
fuzz-distorted terrain. Parkins is a lightning bolt of a performer and
a much sought after collaborator; she works frequently with Sonic
Youth, and has recorded and toured extensively with Courtney Love,
Yoko Ono and Bjork.
