Linda Perhacs

Linda Perhacs, 2014

Linda Perhacs is an American psychedelic folk singer, who released her first album Parallelograms in 1970 to scant notice or sales.[1] The album was rediscovered by record enthusiasts and grew in popularity with the rise of the New Weird America movement and the Internet. It was reissued on CD and 2-LP in 2005, and again in 2008.

Her songs have been featured in soundtracks to many films including Daft Punk's Electroma. Perhacs also sang backing vocals on "Freely" from Devendra Banhart's Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon and features in Prefuse 73's track "Rain Edit (Interlude)" from the album Surrounded by Silence.

In December 2013, Asthmatic Kitty Records announced the March 2014 release of Perhacs' second record The Soul of All Natural Things. The album was recorded in 2012 and 2013 with co-producers Chris Price and Fernando Perdomo. Other collaborators on the album include Julia Holter and Ramona Gonzalez of Nite Jewel.[2] The Soul of All Natural Things was released on March 4, 2014.
