Sill, Judee
Songs Of Rapture And Redemption
Rarities and live collection.
Born October 7, 1944 and hailing from California, Judith Lynn Sill was an American singer songwriter who learned how to
play piano in her father's Oakland bar. She met, befriended and started opening shows for Graham Nash and David Crosby
in the mid-to-late 1960s.
Judee continued to write songs and in 1974 began to record new material planned for a third album that was never
finished. Sill continued to struggle with drug addiction and health problems, eventually dropping out of the music scene
completely. Judee tragically died of a drug overdose on November 23, 1979 at her apartment in North Hollywood.
Sill's music was not commercially viable at the time but was incredibly influential as well as ground-breaking and many
notable songwriters such as Andy Partridge, Liz Phair, Warren Zevon and Shawn Colvin have been fans of her work. Her
songs have been covered by the Hollies, Cass Elliott, Warren Zevon, Beth Orton, Bill Callahan, Bonnie Prince Billy, Ron
Sexsmith, The Fruit Bats and many more.
