Sylvana Joyce
Balkan infused Drama Rock
“Sylvana is basically a human carnival. Her ability to inhabit a song's lyrics and create several diverse characters within the same set while retaining her own personal energy reminds me of the great vaudeville belters -- a Nora Bayes or even a Judy Garland”
