Russian Red is the stage name of Lourdes Hernández, a Spanish indie and folk singer-songwriter.〔malagahoy.es (Ha nacido una estrella )〕 Known by many as the ''Spanish Feist'',〔europapress.es ("Cantar en inglés es instintivo", reconoce la intérprete de Russian Red, poco consciente de la notoriedad alcanzada )〕 in reference to the Canadian singer-songwriter who inspires her in many of her attitudes on the microphone, Hernández—who writes and sings all of her compositions in English—states that she sings in that language instinctively because she has always listened to music in English.〔larioja.com («He intentado componer en español, pero no me sale nada» )〕 == History == Russian Red's project began when Hernández met Brian Hunt, a musician with an English father and Spanish mother, with whom she recorded a demo (which included tracks that remain unpublished like "Reason", "The Night of the Paper", and "Sadie") that reached more than 70,000 visits on her MySpace page by 2008.〔plus.es (El álbum de la semana en plus.es )〕 The name Russian Red comes from the colour of a lipstick that Hernández herself usually wears.〔philthymag.com (Russian Red Talks About Belle & Sebastian, Her Personal Inlook, And The Men That Inspire Her )〕 When asked how she chose the name, Hernández stated: "I had a band without a name some time ago. Since then, I was haunted by an obsession: to find the ideal artistic name. One day, I fell in love with this colour that a girl was wearing. I pronounced its name, and now it is my pseudonym."〔lafonoteca.net (Biografía de Russian Red en Lafonoteca.net )〕 Little by little, Hernández has become well known in the Spanish indie arena, performing more than 60 shows during 2007 and taking part in the prestigious Primavera Sound, among other festivals.〔primaverasound.com (Ficha de la artista en primaverasound.com )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Russian Red」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
