Evalyn Parry’s SPIN was released in March 2011, with the premiere of her theatrical stage show of the same name. Featuring a 1972 CCM Galaxie Bicycle as an electro-acoustic instrument, the recording is an audio and thematic celebration of all things bicycle - from the story of the first women to ride around the world on a bike in 1895 (Annie Londonderry), to an infamous 21st century Toronto bicycle thief, SPIN travels from across centuries, finding creative, contemporary connections between our own time and 1890's golden age of the bicycle. Housed in gate-fold sleeve.
