Lenka’s infectious lyrics came through pop radio waves and secured their spot in your top ten songs to hum at work when they played during favorite prime time television shows and commercial spots throughout 2008. Just off the 2008 Hotel Café Tour with such names as Thao Nguyen, Fiona Apple, Meiko and KT Tunstall, the lovely Aussie, Lenka, hits the road on a solo tour and heads to San Francisco with one of RollingStone.com’s top-25 bands of 2006, Miniature Tigers.

The sweet as sugar, pop star delivers her whimsical perception of love and life with dreamy piano and playful choruses that charmingly speak to everyone’s hopelessly romantic side. Don’t be fooled by her darling sound, this seasoned singer/songwriter gives a wise and exciting face to a new anti-folk, pop sound coming from a bevy of rock and rolling babes these days. This kissable kitsch sound helped Lenka soar to the top of international charts, including: Clear Channel's top 5 Hot AC tracks of 2008 and iTunes Top 10 Albums chart just weeks after its release. The first single off her self-titled CD, “The Show” is a clever and simple seeming song that plays with solid instrumentals along with spoken and softly sung vocals to bring out the poetics of her cheery and intelligent lyrics.

Lenka’s performance will intimately showcase the exciting, upcoming singer/songwriters that are blossoming on the pop scene with heart melting songs and supreme success. Bay Area soft rock and pop radio station, Alice 97.3, brings you this killer show along with many more this winter.
