Heard the one about the New York no wave band fronted by an 11-year-old girl? Chandra Oppenheim wasn't exactly your typical pre-teen, though, as the daughter of conceptual artist Dennis who grew up immersed in avant-garde culture.
Interest in the band has been revived by virtue of one song, 'Kate', featuring on the soundtrack of a 2013 documentary and another, 'Subways', being sampled by The Avalanches on Wildflower, and now EP Transportation is about to be reissued. Chandra were completely unknown to me, but 'Kate' is particularly good.
