Early life and family

Holly Sarah Throsby is the daughter of Margaret Throsby, a radio presenter on Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) Classic FM; and John Buttsworth, a psychiatrist and art and furniture dealer. [1] [2] [3] Her uncle, David Throsby is a cultural economist, and her maternal grandmother was a cellist in the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. [2]

Throsby grew up in Sydney and began studying guitar at the age of 8. She studied classical guitar techniques and began composing from the age of 11. She attended Hunters Hill High School for her secondary education. [4]

Her older half-brother, Timothy Marc, died in a motorcycle accident in Thailand in 1996. [2] Throsby later recalled the death of her brother "I was 17 when [he] died and I had one exam left in my HSC. I went to the exam and did all that stuff because I thought you had to keep on doing that stuff and I didn't stop... Those things affect you. I think it has made me scared. It made me scared to travel because he died when he was in Bangkok. It made me scared to get on a motorcycle, which I've never done. It made me scared when other people travel away from me". [4] After earning a B.A. degree (major in English) from the University of Sydney, Throsby worked at an art house video store for several years and travelled overseas, including living in Austin, Texas for six months. [5]

Solo musical career

2003: Debut album

During 2003 Throsby recorded her debut album, On Night (11 November 2004), with experimental producer, Tony Dupé, at his cottage on Saddleback Mountain, near Kiama. [6] Throsby provided lead vocals and guitar, additional musicians were Dupé on piano and pump organ, Davey Cotsios on guitar and backing vocals, Abel Cross on bass guitar and double bass, and Joseph Fuse on drums. [6] In Australia it appeared on the indie label, Spunk Records. [5] AllMusic's Mark Deming described her album of "uncluttered but emotionally resonant songs made a major impact with critics." [5] Chloe Persing of Woroni felt it was "a collection of quaint and delicate acoustic songs that have a lyrical focus on themes such as loneliness and distance, and have the ability to resonate quite powerfully." [7]

Throsby toured Australia supporting various musical acts: Bonnie "Prince" Billy (a.k.a. Will Oldham), Joanna Newsom, Bill Callahan/ Smog, M. Ward, Devendra Banhart, Jose Gonzales, Low and The Eels. [8] She toured in the United States, attending SXSW in 2005 and returning for a support tour with David Pajo (Slint, Interpol, Papa M). Throsby also toured Europe, including the United Kingdom, with Micah P. Hinson. In September 2005 Throsby's cover version of "Not the Girl You Think You Are" was compiled on the various artist's album, She Will Have Her Way – a tribute to singer-songwriters, and brothers, Tim and Neil Finn. [9] Fellow female singers on the album include Sarah Blasko and Sally Seltmann (as New Buffalo). [9]

2006: Second album

In July 2006, Throsby released her second album, Under the Town , it was produced by Dupé again but included a larger group of session musicians. [10] [11] Dupé assisted with piano, bouzouki, clarinet and trumpet; Jens Birchall provided cello and double bass; Rebecca and Samantha Brown (twin sisters) both played violin, Jack Ladder was on bass guitar and Bree van Reyk played drums. [12] It reached the ARIA Albums Chart top 100. [13] It also reached No. 2 on the related Hitseekers Albums chart. [13] The ARIA Report cited her "distinctive, fragile voice" with her "country-folk sound and poignant lyrics regarding all things from howling wolves to coffee pots" which have "struck a chord with music lovers." [13] Under the Town was lauded by music critics; including the UK press with ratings of 3/5 in Uncut , 4/5 in Mojo , and 8/10 from Drowned in Sound 's Dom Gourlay. [14] At the ARIA Music Awards of 2006 Throsby was nominated for Best Female Artist for the album. [15] [16]

Ed Nimmervoll, an Australian music journalist, declared Under the Town to be his Feature Album for the week of 5 September that year. [11] He explained that "she's moving on, growing. What hasn't changed is the revealing, daring nature of her songs, Holly musing on life and love in a quiet breathless provocative voice, accentuating every word. She's sensual and fragile. The songs are filled with images and feelings that spill between the songs". [11] Mess+Noise's Craig Mathieson opined that "playfulness comes easily, but it’s the unease that lingers" while her "voice has an airy, splintered tone – certain syllables crack under the pressure – and she uses it to move easily between gently plangent pop and formal folk constructs". [17]

Throsby promoted the album with a national tour, interrupted by a short tour of New Zealand. [18] She described her writing process to Laura MacIntyre of MediaSearch website, "I've never had any music lessons, I don't understand music theory. I make chord shapes, but I really just make things up as I go along ... I have ideas for a song, a song can start from one word, one image ... Melodies seem to pop out of thin air often, as if the song is already written, the melodies just seem to come. It's almost involuntary". [18]

2008: Third album

Throsby's third album, A Loud Call (July 2008), was produced in Nashville by Mark Nevers (Lambchop, Andrew Bird) with string and horn arrangements recorded in Kangaroo Valley (near Kiama) by Dupé. [19] It includes guest vocals by Bonnie "Prince" Billy and guest musicians from Lambchop and Silver Jews. [19] A Loud Call was hailed by the Australian and the British press as Throsby's strongest work. Joel Bryant of Same Same website praised its "instrumental depth, a notable departure from the bareness of her previous albums." [20] Daily Mirror 's Gavin Martin described Throsby as "sylph-like" and that "Pumping up the volume is not in [her] game plan" on her "alluring album" as she "knows decibels aren't needed to capture emotional wonders." [21] Mark Deming of AllMusic felt she was "able to sound fragile and strong at the same time; there's a wary vulnerability in her breathy vocals, but the emotional power of her music is enough to persuade anyone that this is someone who possesses a firm will when she needs it." [19]

A Loud Call peaked at No. 34 on the ARIA Albums Chart – her highest placement as a solo artist. [22] At the ARIA Music Awards of 2008 it provided her second nomination as Best Female Artist. [23] Throsby toured extensively in Australia, as well as tours in Europe with Paul Kelly, [24] The Handsome Family, [25] and The Tallest Man on Earth [25] – who covered Throsby's track, "To Begin With", at his subsequent live shows. Throsby played at the St Jerome's Laneway, [26] [27] and Splendour in the Grass festivals in 2007 and 2009. [28] [29]

2010: Children's album

In October 2010 Throsby released an album of original children's songs, See!. [30] Billed as an alternative "black sheep" children's album, See! was recorded in January of that year with long-time collaborator Dupé and included guest cameos by Darren Hanlon, J. Walker, Jack Ladder and, her mother, Margaret Throsby. It was released through ABC Music. Throsby and her band, The Hello Tigers – with Bree van Reyk on drums and percussion and Jens Birchall on cello, bass and mandolin [30] – have performed the album as a live show at festivals in the Australian state capitals including Sydney Festival, Brisbane Festival, Adelaide Festival Centre and Melbourne Arts Centre.

Throsby told Darren Levin of Mess+Noise, "I thought it'd be fun to make one for friends who had kids... hanging out with them, and babysitting them, and driving around in the car listening to this children's music that just made me want to stab my ears out... I thought it'd be a nice idea to make an album that wasn't like warbling 'Itsy Bitsy Spider' over a really bad background." [31] At the ARIA Music Awards of 2011 she was nominated for an ARIA Award for Best Children's Album for See!. [32]

2011: Fifth album

In February 2011 Throsby released her fifth solo album, Team, which peaked in the ARIA Albums Chart top 50. [22] It was recorded in a 19th-century church in Wildes Meadow with Dupé producing. Team received four-star reviews in the Australian and British press and was lauded as her most experimental album, eschewing traditional song structure for layered, intersecting vocals expressing varying points of view around the subject of a relationship breakdown. Chris Trout of Drowned in Sound found she was "a brilliant writer of melodies, even when shackled to a trad blueprint" where "the lyrics are affecting because the imagery Throsby employs is neither too personal and specific... nor too self-consciously 'poetic'... to communicate much to the listener except that she is in the presence of a Good Writer." [33]

2017: 6th album

Throsby released After a Time in 2017. Recorded by Tim Kevin, the album featured a Throsby-penned duet with Mark Kozelek called "What Do You Say?" and performances from Mick Turner from Dirty Three as well as Bree van Reyk, Jens Birchall and Marcus Whale (Collarbones, BV). After a Time was longlisted for the Australian Music Prize and was included in Rolling Stone Magazine 's top 50 albums of the year, and music journalist Bernard Zuel's top 10. The song "What Do You Say?" had over 2.5 million streams on Spotify and the song "Aeroplane" had over 30 million streams.

[38] To promote it Throsby and the group toured Australia with other artists on the related They Will Have Their Way Tour in November of that year.
