I just saw this post! PJ Harvey has been one of my favorites for ~25 years (although Dry thru Stories will always be my favorite run from her). I play To Bring You My Love for my two year old all the time. And I just got the chance to see her live for the first time, and, in front of me, there was a dad with his teenage daughter. He’d been listening to Harvey since the ‘90s and had obviously passed down a love to his daughter, who was just beside herself with excitement and joy to be at the show. Just like a really good memory to hold on to during a bad year.
that is the most hardcore album choice to play to a two year old i have ever heard lol-- mad props. to bring you my love was my main jam for a long long time, i still love it so much. the dancer! idk why but is this desire seems to be the one i always come back to. i'm so glad you got to see her! i saw her for the uh-huh her tour. thank you for sharing this story about the dad and daughter at the concert <3

Such a fan of PJ Harvey and this reminds me she’s the perfect soundtrack to my current anger at the state of the world. Thanks for the shoutout too!
Yes! Really any of her albums is probably a balm right now. Love your work <3
