spider

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)



"After listening to this disc, all we can say is Marissa Nadler and Joanna Newsom better watch their backs. If there is any justice in the world, the throngs of bearded and bead encrusted modern free folk freaksand forest maidens that make up the new weird underground will bow down before Jane Herships, the woman who is Spider."

Aquarius Records



"Spider doesn't own a car, she doesn't ride a bike, and she certainly doesn't take the subway or the bus. She rides a horse wherever she goes. It's not for the attention, or because she wants to be eccentric, she doesn't have to try at that, she's just herself. Here she's tossing the saddle onto Gabe's Ol' Jodie, a chestnut Halflinger, at daybreak, the air cold as ice and a thick dew runs down the leather like it's crying, and rides to the supermarket. There she buys dried onion flakes and club soda, for the horse, and a basket of plums for herself. Then she rides up and over the highway to the other part of town and checks on all the places she used to live, to see what's changed. A lot has changed if you know what to look for."

Said the Gramophone



".Think Sam Beam meets Vashti Bunyan; hushed, comforting,

and ultimately, beautiful and calming. In other words, just what I

needed." – gorillavsbear
