Band Websitehttp://edithfrost.com/
Band MembersI sing and play guitar, and maybe a little keyboards if nobody’s looking.

My records are almost always produced by Rian Murphy.

When I play with a band it’s usually Nathaniel Braddock on guitar, Ryan Hembrey on bass and Jason Toth on drums. And/or whoever else I can sweet-talk into joining me for a recording or a show, including but definitely not limited to:

Amy Domingues (cello)
Azita Youssefi (piano)
Dave "Max" Crawford (horns)
Emmett Kelly (guitar)
John Hasbrouck (guitar)
Josh Abrams (bass)
Lindsay Anderson (keys, bg vox)
Mark Greenberg (keys, bass, drums)

I don’t think I’ve ever toured or recorded with the same band twice.

   About Edith Frost
If you'd like to hear more, there's a whole album of free demos online, a discography and various MP3s and videos on my website, edithfrost.com. You can buy my studio albums on vinyl and CD at my label Drag City. CDs are also available on Amazon, and you can buy MP3s on iTunes or Amazon MP3.

All press, radio, booking and other business-related questions should be directed to my label Drag City.

PRESS:

"Frost still has the unique ability to come across like JonBenet Ramsey warbling the Patsy Cline songbook. It's the juxtaposition of silly and sad."
~Jason Cherkis, Washington City Paper

"Her voice overflows with an earthy sweetness one typically encounters on dusty country records -- yet ignores distinctions between old and new, city and country, art and kitsch."
~Jay Ruttenberg, Time Out New York

"Edith Frost gives new hope for those seeking that kind of introspective, country-tinged singer-songwriter stuff but who're bored to tears with the way it sounds. Over the course of a few generally excellent Drag City albums, Frost has taken the form and given it goose..."
~John Payne, LA Weekly

"Edith Frost is the possessor of a dusky pair of pipes, and she knows a thing or two about arrangements, making songs [with] absolutely irresistible trinkets of new-wave bumpkinism."
~Joe S. Harrington, Magnet

Hi Edith Frost,

We are huge fans! Calling over time was one of my favourite records until someone broke into my car and stole it... C'est la vie! Come play Canada sometime... we don't bite!

Just been browsing through your older photos on Flickr. Your snaps of Kraftwerk live came out so much better than mine.
Also, well done with the knitting!
