Larkin Grimm

Larkin Grimm (now based in Providence, RI) was born in a Memphis, TN commune and grew up in Dahlonega, Georgia in the foothills of the Appalachians with a family of singers and fiddlers. Harpoon, her debut CD, reflects these rustic influences through a modern, psychedelic filter. Larkin's intense, ecstatic voice with swirling multi-tracked patterns recalls the richness of Illuminations-period Buffy Sainte-Marie and the sparkle of Linda Perhacs. Her instrumentation includes dulcimer, pennywhistle, bells, drums and guitar.

Larkin was previously a member of the Dirty Projectors (Western Vinyl) where she astounded audiences with her mesmerizing voice. She has also played shows with folks such as Entrance, The Microphones, Viking Moses, Old Time Relijun and her brother Joe Grimm's project The Wind Up Bird. Larkin Grimm is a very special artist and Harpoon Baptism is a truly magical recording. Her second album is called The Last Tree and was released on 10th October 2006 by Secret Eye.
