  • Bio

    "I read this book about how some scientists tried to get primates to paint. For 10 years they worked on it, and nothing happened. Then, one of the monkeys suddenly began to paint, and what it painted were the bars of its cage. So, in my writing, I believe I'm painting the bars of my cage so that I can get out. This is something you have to get done before you can meaningfully move on in any way." .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. 'I'm not in the music industry...they sell songs. I write prayers. How do you sell a prayer?'

On “Boulder,” we hear the voice of a legend—the story of an elder. Bitch's production not only captures the essence of Ferron's songs, but challenges the youth to do what youth is rarely encouraged to do: tune in to the ones who have come before us, hear their wisdom and grow from it. “Boulder” was produced by Bitch, mixed by Tucker Martine (Decemberists, Death Cab for Cutie, Bill Frisell) and mastered by Jon Cohrs (Laurie Anderson, Pink Martini, Quasi). “Boulder,” is released on Bitch’s own record label, Short Story Records.
