ECHO GIRL

Ex [B]Throwing Muse[/B] flies in to answer your questions plus news on new album, single and [a]Nirvana[/a] cover...

Kristin Hersh will be here next Wednesday (16th June) at 4pm to take part in the latest nme.com web chat.

It's your chance to quiz her on her solo career and the Throwing Muses.

Hersh - whose new album 'Sky Motel' is released on June 28 - has a new single out on Monday called 'Echo' that also includes covers of Nirvana's 'Pennyroyal Tea' and The Beatles' 'Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except For Me And My Monkey'.

"I wanted to do these two songs as b-sides purely for fun - and as a fan," she said. "I thought, what cool songs! I wanna play those! Plus, they're almost complete opposites. 'Pennyroyal...' is so dark, and '...Monkey' is just so light..."

You can here the new single, 'Echo' in full on the 4AD website click here.
