About Me

There once was a little girl. She was born in the bush. Her parents called her Lenka. Her first friends were trees. Her father played the trumpet, she sang with him when she was 6. She grew up a bit. They moved to the big city (Sydney). She went to school. She danced a bit. She acted a bit. She went to art college. She started to sing a bit moreâ€¦ She joined a band called Decoder Ring. They created an album called Somersault, which was the soundtrack to a feature film called Somersault. It won lots of awards. She got called things like an â€œethereal songstressâ€ a â€œpocket rocketâ€ and â€œbreathy, strangely haunting.â€ (Rolling Stone â€™04) She flew on a plane and landed in Los Angeles. She hid away in studios and emerged with new songs. One of her songs â€œFollowâ€ provided the soundtrack to Courtney Cox masturbating in Dirt. She found this nice. She wants to do more â€“ song writing, singing, performing, collaborating. Making people feel some pleasureâ€¦
