Kill Rock Stars is an indie label co-founded by Tinúviel and Slim Moon in Olympia, Washington. Originally intended as an outlet for Slim Moon's spoken word records, the label quickly expanded into the vibrant music scene of the region. With a focus on promoting female artists, Kill Rock Stars gained recognition as one of the few U.S. indie labels with an all-female full-time staff after Slim Moon's departure in 2006.

Over the years, Kill Rock Stars has been home to legendary Riot Grrl/Indie/Punk Rock acts such as The Gossip, Unwound, Bikini Kill, Witchypoo, and Sleater-Kinney. Their catalog includes a diverse range of releases that have made a significant impact on alternative music.

Note: When adding or updating releases on Kill Rock Stars, please ensure that CD and Vinyl versions have the same Catalog number if they are part of the same release sequence. If you encounter a duplicate warning when submitting changes, simply tick the box and mention it in the Submission Notes without altering the Catalog number format.

Voices From The Empty Moor seeks to honour the mystery and beauty of Anne Briggs' music while maintaining its own unique perspective, foregrounding powerful emotion and, hopefully, magical transformation. Bassist, composer and arranger Devin Hoff has been intensively studying the music of Anne Briggs for over a decade. Briggs was a leading light of the 1960s English folk scene, a gifted songwriter and improvisor, as well as an amateur musicologist who revived traditional English, Scottish, and Irish traveller songs with an unpretentious approach that perhaps presaged the rebellion of punk as much as it honored tradition. The arrangements here include collaborations with musician friends that share a fascination with mining specific folk forms for universal and timeless truths; singers Julia Holter, Shannon Lay, Sharon Van Etten and Emmett Kelly.oud player: Alejandro Farha... saxophonist: Howard Wiley... and drummer Jim White.
