E.R. Thorpe

E.R. Thorpe

E.R. Thorpe was raised on the blues in the place where folk music, full of rage and fragile beauty, goes back to the source. Her sound is evocative, sometimes wilfully naïve, sometimes considered and ultra-precise, often strange, always hypnotic. With a ragged edge that has more in common with Nick Cave, Patti Smith, PJ Harvey and William Blake than the obvious comparisons, she muses on nature and religion, God and the devil, good and evil, revealing both the beauty and devastation of life. These are songs born of deep tradition, but alive in the present day, revealing and fragile, executed spare and sharp.
