The Wenatchee World
Local singer goes global on new album
BY KELLI SCOTT
World staff writer
East Wenatchee musician Troy
Lindsey released his ﬁfth album
this month, a body of work written
and recorded in
Russia, Wenatchee
and Nashville. On
the album, “Cold
Emotion,” Lindsey’s

Galina Bosaya’s
bold diva vocals.

It’s a unique combination: soulful
laments about gun violence and
life on the road backed by what
sounds a little like Shakira with a
Russian accent.
Lindsey, the former owner
of Devil’s Gulch Drinkery in
Cashmere, met Bosaya “randomly
on the street” during a vacation
in Moscow a few years ago. The
two played some shows together,

Schultz met in Nashville to polish
between their homelands. “We’re
two cultures that are completely
different in some ways,” Lindsey
said. “Americans walk around
happy and friendly. When you’re
in Russia, people are not waving at
their neighbor on the street. They’re
more reserved and they keep to
themselves.”
The song “Dark Hour” is
Lindsey’s outcry against the recent
spate of school shootings in the U.S.,
and it’s a song he has been tossing
around in some form for years. “I’ll
look back through some of my old
notebooks and I’ll have starts of
that song in different variations,”
Lindsey said. After the shooting at
Marysville Pilchuck High School in
October, Lindsey decided: “That’s it,
I need to ﬁnish this up and get this
song out there.”
“Cold Emotion” is a digital-only
release. To watch the video for
“Dark Hour” or to purchase the

warning: the video is extremely

images from real school shootings.
