Kristin Hersh on Clear Pond Road, Nick At Nite, & Signs That Give Our Lives Direction

Kristin Hersh catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about her latest solo album, Clear Pond Road. The Throwing Muses leader tells us about trashing an album she was working on prior to this new set, how the title comes from a sign she found in a junk shop and how it gave her direction, as well as the generally strong sense of place the LP focuses on, especially New Orleans and Southern California. Hersh also discusses how she writes songs to discover something for herself, her love of classic Nick At Nite like Bewitched (which she named a new song after) and Leave It To Beaver, how she once played an Australian show under a big tree that she thought was supposed to be a club, and how the guitar she picks up dictates whether the song will end up as a solo cut or with Throwing Muses of 50 Foot Wave.Listen to Kristin Hersh sit and chat about all this and more in the new episode or watch it on Youtube.
