Kristin Hersh After the release of Throwing Muses' fifth album, Red Heaven, Kristin Hersh, the band's lead singer/songwriter, took a break from the group and issued her first solo album, the acoustic Hips and Makers, in early 1994.

David Wilcox For over fifteen years David Wilcox has been making music with a style that The Boston Globe says "combines the best of both pop and modern folk aesthetics." The ability to perform solo makes last minute trips possible, such as in Africa, where Wilcox performed in Sudan at the country's first national day of prayer. Concern about international crises led to songs such as 'Three Brothers', a moving allegory of Middle East turmoil; 'Reaper Sweepstakes', about the universal marketing of fear; and 'Falling for It', a biting satire of political deception. |
