August 5, 2022—Regina Spektor recently stopped at NPR Music to perform at Tiny Desk concert; Watch/share her performance of “Loveology,” “Becoming All Alone,” “Après Moi,” “Fidelity,” “Samson,” and a new original “Tiny Song” HERE. Bob Boilen at NPR Music describes “what unfolds over the course of the next five songs is the humor and passions I've loved in Regina Spektor's music since receiving an early release of her Soviet Kitsch CD in 2004. Now 18 years later, Regina has made what I believe is her most astonishing record to date, Home, before and after.”
In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Spektor is gearing up to release a special, limited edition box set of her self-released debut album 11:11, along with a 2xLP collection of live performances entitled Papa's Bootlegs.
The box set includes a remastered vinyl edition of 11:11, Papa's Bootlegs which includes never before heard or released songs from the 11:11 era—recorded by Regina's father—a full color lyric booklet with liner notes, reproductions of original fliers, art, doodles and photos. The album cover for Papa’s Bootlegs was hand drawn by Spektor’s friend Seth Avett of The Avett Brothers.
11:11 comes fresh off the heels of her critically acclaimed new studio album Home, before and after. She’ll be hitting the road on a fall US tour in support of the album, set to kick off October 9 in Chicago with stops in 13 cities. Spektor will also be playing at Planet Bluegrass Festival in Lyons, CO on September 16. Complete list of dates below and more info/tickets HERE.
