The time has finally come! After much anticipation, the music world has been blessed with the debut E.P. by the soulful songstress Bridget Barkan. “Dear Stranger” takes fans on a tantric journey that looks to give Pop Music a sharp injection of the lusty R&B vibe presented in the past by divas like Chaka Khan, Cheryl Lynn, and Evelyn King, while nodding to the strength of rock legends like Janis Joplin and Patti Smith. Where Pop Music has taken a turn toward dancey techno beats, Bridget Barkan’s poetic vibe and raspy New York bite brings a new kind of freshness to the industry, making her an extremely addictive artist. Each track on this album seeks out the vulnerability of her listeners, allowing them to be exposed at their rawest form while they learn how to love all over again. With tracks like “Dear Stranger” and “Better than Human (B.B. Freestyle)” listeners get to see the various spectacles that make up the human condition… moving from strangers to lovers, and from ignorant passersby to aware sympathizers. After listening to this album it will certainly be hard to view life in the same light ever again. Bridget’s humility and passion for life is something incomparable to many, which is something rare to find in contemporary times. Pair this album with her singles, “This Place Knows Me” and “Suga Free,” and fans will be taken to a new level of vibrant passion that only Ms.BridgeToLove can deliver.
Can’t get enough of Bridget Barkan? Catch her giving fierce face as she performs backup for international sensation The Scissor Sisters as they tour the globe this summer promoting their newest album “Magic Hour!” If that’s not enough, you can find her on several episodes of “Law and Order: SVU” and in several films, including HBO’s “Everyday People” where she stars in the lead role as Joleen. Multifaceted, Bridget Barkan is an artist that can and will top the charts, while withstanding the many tests of time. Always serving love and light, Bridget Barkan’s music and vision can be seen in all we experience on a daily basis. One listen to this passionate siren and you’ll find yourself crossing that glorious BridgeToLove in no time for sure!
