The "Parallel Universe" CD is an artistic 11-song collection of dreamy spiritual folk/world pop from L.A. vocal siren Nijole (pronounced Neola) Sparkis.Nijole’s vocals are hypnotic and her songwriting solid, but what sets her atmospheric sound apart from the crowd is her choice of exotic, richly textured world music instruments,Lithuanian choral background vocals, and inspiring lyrics, with appeal for fans of everything from the lavish pop of Kate Bush and Loreena McKennitt, to the harmony-laden Enya and the Eurocentric Dead Can Dance Instruments include sitar, Turkish saz, octave mandolin, flamenco guitar, electric guitar and keyboards, ethnic percussion and flutes, cello and Arabic violin.
