The New York artist Antony Hegarty (1971) was born in England but grew up in the United States. Initially found his music only in small circles hearing, but when he discovered Reed went fast. His second album I Am A Bird Now was showered with superlatives. Antony's androgynous appearance and voice, which sounded simultaneously intimate and theatrical, distinguished him from many of his contemporaries.
Hegarty continued to work with CocoRosie, Rufus Wainwright and disco group Hercules And Love Affair. His third album The Crying Light (2009) was well received.more
