The Garden, a PJ Harvey Discussion Site

Imagine my surprise when I pass the fellows laying a new wall in front of a neighbour's house and I hear 'Rid of Me' coming out of the radio. This turned out to be the advance of an announcement from Mary Ann Hobbs on BBC Radio 6 that there's going to be an hour-long interview/recording with Polly called 'Invitation from Polly Harvey' to be broadcast at 11.30am on Wednesday 12th. It'll cover her career and curating Festival Republic this summer.

And Hobbs followed that up with Nadine Shah so I found that very pleasing : )

Ooh, cool, thanks for the heads-up! I remember listening to Mary Anne’s show last year around the time of I Inside the Old Year Dying release and if memory serves me right, she played one of the tracks and mentioned that Polly had promised her to come on her show a few years ago.


ETA: And here’s the link to the show, should be available to listen for 30 days after broadcast —

Invitation from PJ Harvey

Mary Anne spends time with Polly Harvey at her rehearsal space in Dorset ahead of her tour reflecting on her life as a live performer, from the outset of her career at 19 to now.

That was really lovely <3

Yes!
Aside from all the nice chat, I also enjoyed the choice of the 1995 live version of 50ft Queenie.

Thanks for this. She is in a good interview phase at the moment.

Since it will last only 30 days, i saved it.
you can save it too, from here: https://fromsmash.com/9zXWnSD8Wx-dt
the link will be working only for 6-7 days.








Glad to hear she's happy. She deserves it!
