Over a long, hot Christmas in Australia, Throwing Muses frontwoman and critically acclaimed solo artist Kristin Hersh considers her future as a songwriter. Is it possible to create music and not show off about it? How can artists establish and refine a following without becoming part of the commercial problem? And just how many times is it healthy to watch It''s A Wonderful Life in three weeks? In The Future of Songwriting, Hersh chooses to interrogate these questions through philosophical dialogue.
From in-depth conversations with a comedian friend about the similarities between songs and jokes, via a fruitful visit to Sydney''s ''bone museums'', to a revelation from an acupuncturist in New Orleans, she delivers a fierce, funny and existential meditation on the art of the song - and its future.
