Thorn Apple

Thorn Apple is a group of musicians who get together to create down-tempo / trip-hop / ambient music with personal and emotional lyrics. The project started in the winter of 2000. The result was stirring the embers - a collection of covers originally by Eurythmics, Gary Numan, Foo Fighters, Roxy Music, The The, Cyndi Lauper and more. 2001 yielded an ambitious collaboration with more than a dozen artists. Crystalline combined the talents of Axoe, Bloodwire, Dia, Fonta Hadley, Halou, Peter Harrison, Hungry Lucy, and Andrew Lindsay into a cohesive and extremely moving collection. 2002 was the most abitious project yet: gradient is a 2 volume adventure through many seemingly diverse and contradictory styles, but somehow, it all works! The artists who participated in the previous years were accompanied by Astral, Charlotte Brewster, Brad Clark, Chris Gill, Shannon Moe, Trigger10d, Shannon Whitley, ZnF, and a chihuahua named DoeDoe.
