PJ Harvey

In 2005, PJ Harvey was riding high on the waves of acclaim following the release of her album "Uh Huh Her," which came out earlier in the year. This live session recorded at LSO St Luke's in London, part of the John Peel Night celebration on October 26, captures her raw and unfiltered energy perfectly. It's fascinating to note that this album was a significant milestone for Harvey, as it marked her first release in collaboration with her newly formed band, highlighting her innovative spirit. The performance showcases her signature mix of rock and avant-garde, giving fans a taste of her dynamic range and lyrical depth. As one of the few female artists to truly dominate in the rock genre during the '90s and 2000s, Harvey's ability to weave personal and political themes into her music resonates throughout this live set.
