Storm Large

Storm Large cartwheeled out of the gutter of her checkered past across a thousand punk rock stages and into her infamously googled stint on CBS’s “Rock Star: Supernova.” From there she went on to tour the world, singing in 17 different languages—and only behaving herself somewhat—with the joyful little pop orchestra Pink Martini. Now, this self-described “genre-fluid big mouth” tours the country with her own band, Le Bonheur. Storm brought Feinstein’s/54 Below to its knees last December with sold-out performances of her Holiday Ordeal, and returns with a new collection of tortured and titillating love songs; beautiful, familiar, yet subversive. Like Storm.
