PALM SPRINGS - "A COLLECTION OF SONGS" LP

POISON CITY:

Bringing together music from long out-of-print 7" and tape releases, here for the first time is a collection of songs spanning the last ten years of output from PALM SPRINGS; the outsider folk identity of Erica Dunn (MOD CON/ Tropical Fuck Storm/ Harmony) and an evolving cast of essential collaborators.

Born out of a compulsion to write sparse and intimate verse and a self-admonishing dig at her nervous affliction for sweaty hands, Palm Springs has been a local cornerstone in dive bars & backrooms playing and releasing music steadily over the last decade. The A side of this record captures the most recent tape offering Palm Springs & Friends originally released by Tender Collection while the B-Side has a spread of selections of the artist’s choosing, nodding to early 7”s originally offered by Rice is Nice records and also includes cuts from Flowers in A Vase, the tape offered by the artist’s own Palm Springsteen Records. This release hopes to bring Palm Springs to a wider audience and to document the ongoing creative journey of this much loved local musician.
