10.30: Kristin Hersh in Conversation with Peter Ames Carlin
2015-09-15 22:02:55| Powells Books Events Calendar
A quadriplegic who could play only simple chords on his guitar, Vic Chesnutt recorded 17 critically acclaimed albums before his death in 2009. Kristin Hersh (Throwing Muses) toured with Chesnutt for nearly a decade, bonding over a love of songwriting and mutual struggles with mental health. In Don't Suck, Don't Die (University of Texas), Hersh plumbs the sources of Chesnutt's pain and creativity. Hersh will be joined in conversation by Peter Ames Carlin, author of Bruce and Catch a Wave.
