Hetch Hetchy (band)
''Hetch Hetchy'' was an American post-punk band formed in Athens, Georgia. Lynda Stipe, sometimes credited as Lynda L. Limner, was the only consistent member of the group until they permanently disbanded. History The EP '' Make Djibouti'' was issued through Texas Hotel in 1988 and was produced by Lynda's brother Michael Stipe, the lead singer of the band R.E.M. After the release of ''Make Djibouti'' most of the original players left the band, leaving Stipe as the only remaining group member. Bassist and vocalist Jay Totty, who had recently moved from Athens to Florida, saw Stipe performing with her band Cowface and was impressed. They formed a new incarnation of Hetch Hetchy and released ''Swollen'' in 1990, with Tim Sommer and Hahn Rowe producing. In contrast to the group's previous release, ''Swollen'' drew inspiration from gothic rock, dream pop and British folk music, garnering them comparisons to Cocteau Twins and Hugo Largo.

Keyboard Instrument
A keyboard instrument is a musical instrument played using a keyboard, a row of levers which are pressed by the fingers. The most common of these are the piano, organ, and various electronic keyboards, including synthesizers and digital pianos. Other keyboard instruments include celestas, which are struck idiophones operated by a keyboard, and carillons, which are usually housed in bell towers or belfries of churches or municipal buildings. Today, the term ''keyboard'' often refers to keyboard-style synthesizers. Under the fingers of a sensitive performer, the keyboard may also be used to control dynamics, phrasing, shading, articulation, and other elements of expression—depending on the design and inherent capabilities of the instrument. Another important use of the word ''keyboard'' is in historical musicology, where it means an instrument whose identity cannot be firmly established. Particularly in the 18th century, the harpsichord, the clavichord, and the early ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hetch Hetchy (band) Albums
Hetch Hetchy is a valley, reservoir, and water system in California in the United States. The glacial Hetch Hetchy Valley lies in the northwestern part of Yosemite National Park and is drained by the Tuolumne River. For thousands of years before the arrival of settlers from the United States in the 1850s, the valley was inhabited by Native Americans who practiced subsistence hunting-gathering. During the late 19th century, the valley was renowned for its natural beauty – often compared to that of Yosemite Valley – but also targeted for the development of water supply for irrigation and municipal interests. The controversy over damming Hetch Hetchy became mired in the political issues of the day. The law authorizing the dam passed Congress on December 7, 1913. In 1923, the O'Shaughnessy Dam was completed on the Tuolumne River, flooding the entire valley under the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir. The dam and reservoir are the centerpiece of the Hetch Hetchy Project, which in 1934 beg ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
