Eleanor Friedberger, originally known as one half of the brother-sister duo, The Fiery Furnaces, has now released two solo albums and is defining her status in the indie world. This recording is a cover version of "Shivers", a song written by Rowland S. Howard and performed by Nick Cave with his first band Boys Next Door, which subsequently became The Birthday Party.
The Vinyl Factory has partnered American multi-media artist Doug Aitken and the Barbican to bring his acclaimed 'Station to Station: A 30 Day Happening' to the UK for a month-long, building-wide, art intervention, from Saturday 27 June - Sunday 26 July.
For the duration of the event, which features residencies, installations, live performances, workshops, screenings and more, The Vinyl Factory has created The Vinyl Factory Recording Studio to provide a space for musicians and artists to experiment and improvise and has installed The Vinyl Factory Press on-site to manufacture these recordings into vinyl editions.
Eleanor Friedberger recorded this edition as part of the original Station to Station, which crossed North America by train from Atlantic to Pacific over 24 days in 2013. Pressed on-site at the Barbican Centre for Station to Station July 2015.
