Regina Spektor gives fans 'Hope' this fall

Singer/songwriter Regina Spektor shows off her eclectic stylings during an in-progress roadtrip on the US club and theater circuit that supports her latest album, "Begin to Hope."

Spektor's itinerary currently has her in the Midwest--she'll play Detroit tonight (10/13)--and she's scheduled to play about 20 shows between now and a Nov. 17 stop in Atlanta. Details are shown below.

Released in June, "Begin to Hope" follows 2004's "Soviet Kitsch." The new collection, which is Spektor's first release for Sire Records, features the cuts "On the Radio" and "Fidelity," the latter of which is streaming at Spektor's MySpace page.

Spektor, who was born in Russia in 1980 and spent the first nine years of her life in that country, is a classically trained pianist. She rose out of New York City's anti-folk scene at the beginning of the millennium, where she got her start playing cafes and selling her own self-produced CDs.

The public's awareness of Spektor has grown over the past couple of years thanks in part to the use of her music in episodes of the television dramas "CSI: NY" and "Grey's Anatomy."
