About Me

VOSTOK LAKE - where DIY electro-pop meets performance poetry. VOSTOK LAKE is a one-woman show of vocal dramatics, deadpan comedy and low-budget synthesizer pyrotechnics. Kelkaj el niaj kantoj estas en la internacia lingvo Esperanto. VOSTOK LAKE is very interesting and completely different. Listen for yourself.
