About Kristin Hersh
Over the last three decades, Kristin Hersh’s prolific career has seen her heralded queen of the alternative release.
‘One of indie rock’s most fascinating figures’ (Guardian) Hersh has released over 20 records solo, with Throwing Muses and 50FOOTWAVE to date. The author of an acclaimed memoir — based on her teenage diary — about a particularly eventful year, titled Rat Girl (Paradoxical Undressing in the UK). It saw Rolling Stone name it one of their 25 Greatest Rock Memoirs Of All Time. A publishing first, she later released Crooked (2010) as a ground-breaking book that included the album, artwork, lyrics and an exclusive essay, something that was further explored with Throwing Muses album Purgatory/Paradise(2013). Her latest book Don’t Suck, Don’t Die: Giving Up Vic Chesnutt chronicles the pairs deep friendship and their time touring together.
In 2018 Hersh announced a new partnership with Fire Records that made possible the release of her tenth studio album, Possible Dust Clouds – a highly personalised gem delivered as a futuristic rewriting of how music works, a melodious breeze with a tail wind of venomous din. Enveloping the juxtaposition of the concept of dark sunshine, a brooding solo record created with friends to expand her off-kilter sonic vision; a squally, squeaky mix of discordant beauty. Feedback and phasing gyrate from simply strummed normality, imagine Dinosaur Jr and My Bloody Valentine cranking up a Dylan couplet.
