“Natalia’s voice could send an orchid into bloom while her guitar playing can open a beer bottle with its teeth.” The New Yorker

“...a strutting brass band one minute, a sighing lover the next.” The Boston Globe

“...a wise mix of rootsy styles from torch blues to country swing. If you’re a fan of Madeleine Peyroux, Bonnie Raitt or even Amy Winehouse, you’ll find stuff to connect with here.” Philadelphia Daily News

Press release:

As singer, songwriter and guitarist, Natalia Zukerman shares her “rootsy warmth” through a blend of folk, jazz, blues, rock, bluegrass, country and classical music.

This “Dusty Valentine” concert will be a special night for all, as she plays her unique slide guitar with her seductive vocals, unapologetic lyrics and sharp wit.

Zukerman is also a visual artist who allows her artistic and creative instincts to move, shape and influence one another. She is a mural painter and designer, and while living in San Francisco she had her own mural company, Off the Wall. Now a resident of Brooklyn, Zukerman has numerous murals in restaurants and public spaces in and around Brooklyn, as well as across the U.S. and in Cuba.

She passed through this region last summer impressing audiences at a "blue moon" concert at the Silver Lake Institute.

Her new album is titled “Gypsies and Clowns.”
