All her quiet childhood on the farm next to the English town of Jovil Polly Harvi was filled with passion and anger, which she eventually splashed out in a very impressive debut album 'Dry' (1992). At that time, Pi Jay was not quite in itself: the whole group was called her name, or rather the trio, the leader of which she was, well, as we have a 'Zemfira', 'Chicherin' ... For 'Dry', no less brutal disc was followed, for which the producer Steve Albini, who had given a way to the life of the Album Nirvana, was invited for the preparation. 'In utero'. The desperate Polly Harvey leaned on the guitar, thunder and lightning thundered. It was simply impossible to pass by such a performer.
Then the team called Pj Harvey did not, and then the girl moved alone. But what does one mean? Nick Kave, Bjork, with whom she sang a duet, Mick Harvey from Bad Seeds, which produced her albums, Triki is not the most boring company! Albums 'To Bring You My Love' (1995) and 'Is this Desire?' (1998) demonstrated the natural and inevitable growing up of a young hooligan. The scandals died out, Pi Jarvi kept calmly and confidently, knowing that in any case, due to her talent and character, he would not disappear, while most noisy and hysterical female groups of the Granda Epo had broken up and hidden in the impenetrable fog.
The penultimate disc 'Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea' (2000) found Pi Jay Harvey in a state of mental balance, light sadness and coastal freshness. Four years have passed since then, and at the end of May Pi Jay released the long -awaited new album 'Uh Huh Her', after which she immediately rushed into a world tour. Moscow turned out to be one of the first points of its route. Today, this heroine of alternative music will perform in the recreation center. Gorbunova.
