Former lead vocalist of Boston cult rockers Opium Den, Annette Farrington struck out on her own and issued a solo debut in 2001, Azure Wonder & Lust (via Castle von Buhler Records). Specializing in an ethereal style of pop (à la Cocteau Twins, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Kate Bush, etc.), Farrington's debut was a collaboration with producer Anthony J. Resta, best known for his work with Collective Soul and Shawn Mullins. ~ Greg Prato
