MICHELE MERCURE – beside herself (CD)

Michele Mercure is an American recording artist, soundtrack, and score composer residing in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Mercure was part of a group of American musicians in the 80s dabbling with new and cutting edge instrument technologies and self-distribution including Pauline Anna Strom, Lauri Paisley, and K. Leimer. "Beside Herself" presented in collaboration with Freedom To Spend, following the latter label's 2017 reissue of Mercure's 1986 album Eye Chant. The music collected on "Beside Herself" includes works from Mercure's releases "Rogue and Mint" (1983), "A Cast of Shadows" (1984), "Dreams Without Dreamers" (1985), and "Dreamplay" (1990), circulated through tape-trading networks assisted largely by insightful editorial in Eurock, a seminal music magazine covering progressive rock and electronic music scenes. *RVNG INTL
