Part 2 with Dave Narcizo of @throwingmuses.bsky.social is finally up. I wanted to get this out sooner, but y’know life happens. I ran into some audio issues during editing, but I think I did ok salvaging/repairing where I could. Listen wherever you stream your podcasts: campsite.bio/tbws

If you want to dive in all sorts of things that have been posted in The Kristin Hersh Archives through the years from @throwingmuses.bsky.social's "The Real Ramona" era, since it's the album's 35th anniversary this month, you can follow this link: thekristinhersharchives.tumblr.com/tagged/1991

I wrote about Throwing Muses’ 1991 album ‘The Real Ramona,’ which became a backbone for ’90s “alternative” as it came to be known. I also took a dive into the origins of the band, particularly into a bike crash Kristin Hersh experienced at 16 and how it influenced her unconventional songwriting.

"This is the only lullaby my dad ever sang to me that's not about a guy getting drunk and killing his girlfriend" Watch Throwing Muses' Kristin Hersh play "The Cuckoo" for Best Fit's secret sessions at @endoftheroadfestival.com.

I only recently found out that one of my favourite singers, @kristinhersh.bsky.social covered my favourite Nick Drake song, "Fly" for a compilation in 2014. This is so beautiful and so real. It makes me cry. youtu.be/pAQcvt0Lpow?...

Happy new year to all our followers ☘️ Even hard working archivists find out about *old* new things pretty late, and today I found this cover @kristinhersh.bsky.social recorded which is undated, with an unclear origin and an unclear co-singer. Maybe someone can give the context? Enjoy this rarity:

In 2007 (?) @kristinhersh.bsky.social released what I think is her first children's book, Toby Snax, on Delicate Press. This limited first edition is signed and numbered (out of some number I can't quite read now - 8/50?) Then in 2016 (?) U of Texas Press re-printed it. Here are both editions!
