PJ Harvey joined Paul Muldoon on stage at the Nuffield Theatre, Lancaster on 6 July 2017 to read from their poetry and explore, through conversation, its relationship to song lyrics.
PJ Harvey guests on “I’m Sorry for Your Loss,” a new song by her frequent collaborator and producer John Parish. The song pays tribute to Sparklehorse frontman Mark Linkous, who died by suicide in 2010. Parish produced Sparklehorse’s 2001 album A Wonderful Life.
