Description
The intriguingly named Porta Bohemica is actually the railway route between Germany and Austria, and Trixie Whitley has spent a lot of her 28 years travelling too.
The daughter of American rock musician Chris Whitley, Trixie was born in Ghent, Belgium, but was taken to New York as a child before returning to the country of her birth.
She was back in the Big Apple by the time she was 17 and has lived there ever since, honing her craft as a performer, DJ and musician.
Opening track Faint Mystery gives little indication of the experimentation to come, but the album really kicks in on track three, Closer, with Hourglass and Witness underlining her burgeoning talent.
