My Brightest Diamond, the chamber pop band initiated in 2006 by Shara Nova, blends the talents of a classically trained vocalist and self-taught multi-instrumentalist and composer, crafting dazzling, shapeshifting music. With each song written and album released, she has resisted the conventions of genre, blending elements of rock, art pop, and chamber music into a sound totally her own. My Brightest Diamond debuted in 2006 with the album Bring Me the Workhorse, which received critical acclaim for its intricate arrangements and Nova's hauntingly powerful vocals. It showcased her ability to fuse orchestral elements with indie rock, earning her praise for its emotional depth and inventive arrangements. Subsequent albums like A Thousand Shark's Teeth (2008), All Things Will Unwind (2011), and This Is My Hand (2014) further established her as a unique and innovative voice.
