It was only recently, while putting a smaller object in front of the typography on this LP cover, that I realised she must be the source of 'Frances Ha'

That was my first Mme Hardy lp, 25p speculative early 90s oxfam purchase, loved it completely. This has always been a particular favourite : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRymyMYYq9A . Did not know about the lymphoma, bad business, fingers crossed for francoise.

Despite the generic rock backing tracks i really like her singing and songwriting on the recent stuff I've heard.

is there anything similar to her music? La Question in particular? I like the melancholic and dark mood of it, the second Catherine Lara album works
