The critically acclaimed biography of Kate Bush, with a new cover and a foreword by the author and artist Sin?ad Gleeson. Detailing everything from her upbringing to her early exposition of talent, to her subsequent evolution into one of the most stunningly creative and fascinating visual and musical artists alive today, Under The Ivy truly is the story of one woman's life. Thomson writes with great detail, accuracy and above all admiration for her work, this is in equal parts a biography and an analysis of Kate Bush's art. Focusing on her unique working methods, her studio techniques, her timeless albums and inescapable influence, Under The Ivy is a true exploration of one of the world's most underappreciated yet gifted artists. Eminently readable, this book will be an eye-opening journey of discovery for somebody unfamiliar with Bush, but will also reward a long-term fan with new insights and fresh analysis.
Graeme Thomson has written acclaimed studies of, amongst others, Elvis Costello, George Harrison, John Martyn and Philip Lynott. Under The Ivy: The Life & Music Of Kate Bush was described by The Irish Times as 'the best music biography in perhaps the past decade'. He writes regularly for many publications.
