Eva Under Fire is a band from Detroit which is beginning to get a little attention. Eva is the stage name of the lead singer. Her real name is Amanda (named after the Boston song.) She has an M.A. in psychology and works as a therapist in the day. As the band has become more successful, she seems to be doing less of that as she spends more time with her band.
They have a new album which I listened to for the first time today. Comatose is my favorite, but for some reason they didn't do a video of it, only a video with lyrics. They don't do many covers, but evidently "Separate Ways" is a crowd favorite, although it isn't on the new album. The song the lead singer Eva says is the most personal is Heroin(e) because both of her parents were heroin addicts.
In a sense, it might seem like what's being done with this Eva Under Fire music is a form of music therapy. But I've had a music therapist friend for a long time. To me this is something clearly different. It's more like a psychotherapist familiar with rock taking her work to the field, IMO.
