"Anyone who appreciates pop that thumbs its nose at formula should consider tuning in." - Boston Phoenix

Regina Spektor's 2004 Soviet Kitsch garnered praise from Time, Rolling Stone, Spin, Vanity Fair, The New York Times and many others. But this Russian-born, Bronx-bred singer-songwriter-pianist, who emerged from the NYC café circuit, continues to expand her vision. On Begin To Hope, produced by David Kahne (The Strokes, Sublime, Sugar Ray), she broadens her palette with electric guitar, drum machines and seductive electronic loops, finding new canvases for her productive vocal style. Hope for pop has arrived with Regina Spektor.
