My Brightest Diamond — A Thousand Shark's Teeth

in
By Aaron Brophy (CHARTattack) June 17, 2008 12:03 pm
On Bring Me The Workhorse, My Brightest Diamond last album, figurehead Shara Worden used her operatically trained voice to alternately soar through the clouds and dredge in the muck to create a wildly turbulent and emotional musical ride. On A Thousand Sharks Teeth, these highs and lows are traded for a gauzy fumble through a far more middling...

My Brightest Diamond Plays Adorable Set

in
By Melody Lau (CHARTattack) May 5, 2010 4:43 pm
Shara Worden is charming, talented and very pregnant. The quirky, opera-trained one-time bandmate to Sufjan Stevens and The Decemberists who walked up on-stage Tuesday night was about five months preggers, but as if that's ever stopped anyone from rocking out. Remember M.I.A. at the 2009 Grammys? Playing solo — well unless you count the baby...

My Brightest Diamond Is Literally Indie Rock's Wonder Woman

in
By Brian Pascual (CHARTattack) November 6, 2006 5:30 pm
Shara Worden just doesn't rest. At least it certainly seems so lately. The lead singer and primary songwriter of My Brightest Diamond has been busy since the release of her full-length debut, Bring Me The Workhorse. After completing a recent tour opening for fellow Asthmatic Kitty labelmate and current indie wonderboy Sufjan Stevens, Worden...
