PJ HARVEY
The first time PJ Harvey poked her long neck above the musical parapet with a single called ‘Dress’ she was the archetypal indie kid: DMs, black clothes and songs of alienation. There was a spark, however, that suggested more, and a little over a dozen years later she’s one of our foremost songwriters. Her wardrobe may have changed but that unquantifiable element that makes her brilliant remains consistent.
