Catherine Hershey
Catherine Hershey is a French-American artist, illustrator, songwriter and singer.
She is a long time friend of Kate Stables. Catherine illustrated 'this is the kit's' album for 'Bashed Out'.
Russ heard Catherine's songs and fell 'head over heels' with her work, sending her a message about his passion for her songs - Catherine responded saying she found Russell's songs 'warm and soothing'. This was the start of their recordings and friendship.

lyrics

Barley hops and yeast, fields are growing, liquid sleep, Barley John looking for love, drinks fields till he thinks nothing, mmmmmm (seeded fields drift tongues to sleep), drinks fields of happiness, corn Barley John, lonely slowly looks to find his love, though tender words succumb, when barley drifts his strong alcohol song, lost and all alone, he lays stoned, hops and barley fruit takes full hold, lost and all alone words lie dumb, when love she comes, lost in barleys song, fruit takes tongue, alcohol song, mmmmmm, come love please come

Julien Baker is an acquired taste - assuming of course you’ve acquired great taste in singer songwriters… beautiful, devastating, honest, insightful… I’ve not heard a single song of hers that hasn’t left me in absolute awe. crisbroadhurst
