Carina Round and Rosi Golan made a stop at the Tractor Tavern last week while wrapping up their co-headlining US tour. Each had her own backing band and sang a few songs in the other’s set. Both performers are supporting 2012 releases. . . Carina, Tigermending and Rosi, Lead Balloon.

Rosi Golan is one of my favorite female vocalists, and it was about time she returned to Seattle. This Brooklyn-based songstress had been here only one time before back in August of 2010, following the 2008 release of her debut CD, Drifter and The Gypsy. Her latest CD, Lead Balloon, released last fall, is a superb sophomore collection of vibrant vocals, lyrics, and harmonies. You may also recognize her single, “Follow The Arrow,” which happened to land on a national TV spot for JCPenney commercials back in 2009. Her website is very fan- friendly, and the rewards you can receive for being a fan club member include signed merchandise, video chats and more. After her set I asked her about a possible return to Seattle (hoping it would not have to be a long wait) and she really hopes to make it back next year, perhaps next spring.
