Little Annie - With
Anne Bandez (known as Little Annie / Annie Anxiety), is a versatile American singer, painter and performance artist renowned for her extensive collaborations across various music genres since the late 1970s. Her artistic journey has seen her work with a diverse array of musicians, contributing significantly to the experimental and avant-garde scenes.
This collection features the cream of her many collaborations with some of the best known names in the alternative music world: MARC ALMOND (Soft Cell), COIL, SWANS, BONNIE ‘PRINCE’ BILLY, BABY DEE, KID CONGO POWERS (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, The Gun Club, The Cramps), PAUL WALLFISCH (The Ministry Of Wolves, ex-Swans) and LARSEN.
A common atmosphere brings these tracks together; lamenting torch songs, esoteric electronics, melancholic pianos, avant-garde lounge. It is a collection for dark, candle-lit corners of smoky cabaret bars and secret speakeasy clubs.
Annie's career is a testament to her adaptability and innovative spirit, seamlessly blending music, visual arts and literature to create a unique and enduring artistic legacy.
