Kristin Hersh

Doors 19:00 Show starts 20:00

Kristin Hersh shares brand new single ‘Sundial’, a dark, quietly haunting new single offering the first glimpse of new music with a full album to follow later this year. Heading out this Spring for another extensive Throwing Muses US tour, Kristin will then return to the UK and Europe for a solo tour in support of the new record this Autumn.
Sparse and atmospheric, new track ‘Sundial’ unfolds slowly around Hersh’s voice, with cello bringing a low, shadowed undercurrent to a track that feels both intimate and elusive. The song circles around the strange, lasting connections formed between musicians, and how certain sounds or moments can suddenly bring someone back into focus. Hersh traces the idea to something she’s often noticed when collaborating: “Musicians’ heartbeats align right before they start a song together. Real musicians, anyway... This is a measurable phenomenon, but no one has measured how long our hearts keep
beating together. A long time, I think.”

NEW SINGLE: ‘SUNDIAL’ OUT 25th MARCH

‘Sundial’ lingers in that feeling of connection after the fact, where memory surfaces unexpectedly through sound.
“Sometimes I’ll miss someone so suddenly, like a lightning strike. If they’re a fellow musician, this is usually triggered by
musical moments; certain tempos and keys ” Hersh says. “ A person’s sound story... is an intense, rainstorm - dark and
sunshine - bright orientation, like telling time with a sundial. It doesn’t leave you. ”
Mysterious and mood - driven, ‘Sundial’ opens the door to a new body of work from Hersh, offering a first taste of the music
still to come.
