We’re off and running with our ‘Road to Port Fairy’ podcast series - and what a great way to start with the wonderful Kristin Hersh.  Hear all about her start in music as a guitar player born in Atlanta, Georgia, life in a commune and going to Woodstock.  From her time with the influential Throwing Muses, experiences with a major label to an independent artist, and her work as a solo artist.  Kristin tells us about what she’s looking forward to about her return to Australia, and her previous touring experiences around the country.  We can’t wait for Kristin to perform at the Folkie in March 2025!
