My Brightest Diamond is the stage name of experimental pop chanteuse and multi-instrumentalist Shara Worden. At last year’s Holland Festival, Worden performed in The Long Count with members of indierock band The National. She can also be seen on stage regularly with such rock royalty as Sufjan Stevens, The Decemberists and Kings in Hell and she has a growing army of supporters, including David Byrne and Laurie
Anderson. Worden’s own music is an eclectic, personal mix of elements from rock, opera, cabaret and chamber music. She tells mythical stories with her mystical voice developing her experiences with playful and profound originality. Together with Brian Wolfe, Nadia Sirota and an ensemble, Worden will perform a programme based on her latest, critically acclaimed release All Things Will Unwind.
