From The Soft Boys art-rock and The Egyptians Dadaist pop to solo masterpieces like 1984s milestone I Often Dream of Trains and 1990s Eye, Hitchcock has crafted a striking oeuvre rife with recurring marine life, obsolete electric transport, ghosts, cheese and what one writer has described as morbid eroticism.Robyn moved to Nashville in 2015 and gravitated to the Music City community, recording 2017s Robyn Hitchcock with an array of local talent including co-producer Brendan Benson.
