Watch: Kristin Hersh Performs New Throwing Muses Songs In London

To promote the new Throwing Muses album/book, Purgatory/Paradise, Kristin Hersh performed some of the new songs on acoustic guitar at Rough Trade in East London a week and a half ago.

I’ve been listening to the new album today, and it’s fantastic. I think longtime Throwing Muses fans will really like it, but I also think the current indie crowd will dig it too. And anyone else with an open mind.

Check out some of the live performances:

Listen: Throwing Muses “sleepwalking 1”

Maybe you already know about this, but then again maybe you don’t. The song is “sleepwalking 1.” It’s a cool taste of the new Throwing Muses CD/book, Purgatory/Paradise due October 28.
