been following GemsOnVHS for some time and have discovered so many amazing artists through their collection of field recordings. Anthony Simpkins is a prolific, self-taught documentarian and musician - his passion shows up not only in his ability to document well but the choice to use his platform to collaborate with artists and connect to an audience. i highly recommend checking out the project on Youtube and you can support them directly on patreon!

'Prone to Wander' is getting that 12" treatment... VINYL, y'all

"We'll begin by holding that Prone to Wander seems to us, without a doubt, the most impressive debut of this strange and annoying year."

KRISTA SHOWS — DIRTY WORKS Prone to Wander (Frumabuv Records, 2020) Empezaremos sosteniendo, sin medias tintas, que Prone to Wander nos parece, sin duda, el debut más impresionante , ya en las postrimerías, de este año tan extraño y enojoso. Lo primero que llamó nuestra atención fue la voz, profunda y vivida, de es

Deep Blues Festival 2019 - last year after our set, Peter Lee whisked us away to a back alley in my favorite town to take these pictures. Just seeing them for the first time a year later, I really miss playing live music

"If we had a 'Newcomer of the Year' category here at Sugar Mountain, Krista Shows would undoubtedly take this honorary title away." - Sugar Mountain Presents

Krista Shows komt uit niets met DIY-debuut - Paradiso Doe-het-zelver Krista Shows had geen zin meer om nog langer te wachten op belangstellende labels.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 stars! Thank you Written in Music

Krista Shows - Prone To Wander | Written in Music De zangeres met Texaanse roots groeide op in Jackson Mississippi, het landelijke Clarksdale en de omgeving van de Sunflower rivier in de Mississippi Delta inspireerden haar tot prille schrijfsels die in songs uitmonden. Krista Shows leeft nu in Noord Carolina. Ze scharrelde haar spaargeld bijeen en....

"It is a startling debut that could just be the first musical sign of life of a very big one in the genre. Krista Shows makes music that is deeply rooted in American roots music from the deep south of the United States and it is music that stands out for a beautiful and timeless sound." (via google translate)

Many thanks to De Krenten Uit De Pop for the sweet review of my debut album, Prone to Wander

Krista Shows - Prone To Wander Het debuut van Krista Shows is wat ondergesneeuwd door de corona pandemie, maar Prone To Wander is een album dat echt alle aandacht verdient...

Black Lives Matter!!! Way to show up Mississippi

‘If Mississippi is ready for change, then everybody is’: Historic crowd of thousands packs streets of Jackson to protest racial inequities | Mississippi Today Chants of “I can’t breathe!” and “Black lives matter!” and “No justice, no peace!” echoed down Capitol Street outside the Governor’s Mansion as organizers rallied the crowd.

Hello friends! The day is finally here...

We are so proud to release our new record Prone to Wander into the world today. We hope you will see this is as a brave personal offering. So much love went into the making of this record and we hope it feels as cathartic for you as listeners as it felt to us as writer and musicians.

This has been a real lesson in letting go of outcomes. As the covid-19 pandemic started to unfold a couple of my write ups fell through and the entirety of the tour we had planned was canceled. I'm not sure that we will be able to tour this album at all. Still we are here on release day and I'm grateful, fully present, in full surrender, and vulnerable.

Most importantly though, until I've said this to y'all none of this means a damn thing, so thank you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us your ears. We are so truly grateful and excited. DO let us know what you think and spread the word!!! The more folks who hear this record, the more likely the freaks are to take over the world of popular music... help us make it happen!

Thanks again, y'all. Much love.
xoxo k
