Michelle Shocked - traveller, troubadour, a “picker-poet,”as |they say in Texas. As a young feminist, she left Texas to travel, |Kerouac-style, and was caught up in Reagan-era grassroots |politics. Her musical career was ignited by a bootleg recording |made around a Kerrville Folk Festival campfire on a Sony |Walkman. Released in England as ‘The Texas Campfire Tapes’ |without Shocked’s authority, its success abroad enticed |Mercury Records to offer the newcomer a recording |contract. - “The most sophisticated hillbilly you’ll ever meet.” |
