# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Divine Schism: An Evening with Kristin Hersh
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 29 Sep, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Oh yes, we are delighted that Kristin Hersh is coming back to Oxford! She plays an intimate, solo show on Tues 29th Sept at the oldest music hall in Europe - the Holywell Music Rooms.

Over the last three decades, Kristin Hersh’s prolific career has seen her heralded as queen of the alternative release via her bands Throwing Muses and 50 Foot Wave. 

Today she shares brand new single ‘Sundial’, a dark, quietly haunting song offering the first glimpse of new music with a full album to follow later this year. Heading out this Spring for another extensive Throwing Muses US tour, Kristin will then return to the UK and Europe for a solo tour in support of the new record this Autumn and we're happy she's back in Oxford after dazzling us over the past few years.

Sparse and atmospheric, new track ‘Sundial’ unfolds slowly around Hersh’s voice, with cello bringing a low, shadowed undercurrent to a track that feels both intimate and elusive. The song circles around the strange, lasting connections formed between musicians, and how certain sounds or moments can suddenly bring someone back into focus. Hersh traces the idea to something she’s often noticed when collaborating : “Musicians’ heartbeats align right before they start a song together. Real musicians, anyway... This is a measurable phenomenon, but no one has measured how long our hearts keep beating together. A long time, I think.”
