Travel And Teacups CD (2009)
 $16.45
"You spend the early parts of your musical career thinking, 'If only I had a band,' since it's pretty standard to have drums, bass, lead guitar behind you," says Styka. Heather Styka's latest release, "Travel and Teacups," features image-based lyrics with a compelling sense of poetry. Her background is primarily in folk, having received airplay on folk radio shows from Alaska to Australia, California to her native Chicago. But in that intimacy, artists have the freedom to write with more subtle shades of meaning. "The folk community is similar to the poetry community: it's small. Her warm, breathy vocals and distinct guitar style hover over an atmosphere of cello, piano, harmonium, and accordion.The production is deliberately sparse. "Being a part of the folk scene has inspired me to write songs with depth," says Styka. When Styka began writing songs at thirteen, the folk music scene provided supportive venues, such as the renowned Two Way Street Coffee House in Downers Grove. "But the albums that I've gravitated towards -- you know, Nick Drake, Damien Rice, Bon Iver, Emiliana Torrini's 'Fisherman's Women' -- that stuff is beautiful in its simplicity." With that aesthetic in mind, Styka set out to create a polished but minimal sound, retaining the fresh vibrancy of live performance, by using acoustic instruments such as cello, piano, harmonium, and accordion for embellishment.Acoustic arrangements and complex lyrics were a natural choice for Styka.
