Alternative country-rock singer/songwriter Edith Frost was born in San Antonio, TX, on August 18, 1964. As a child, her family moved sporadically between San Antonio, Austin, and Guadalajara, Mexico; after college she relocated to Brooklyn, where by day she worked as an Internet programmer and by night fronted three different groups: the Holler Sisters (an old-time country covers band), the Marfa Lights (a Western swing outfit), and Edith & Her Roadhouse Romeos (a rockabilly unit). By 1992, Frost was performing her own songs and, inspired by her love for <a href="spotify:artist:2EEw2tt8AJcH9qXUeB96Oc">Will Oldham</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:5Sr14eTmMMC76LEFDSnvh9">Palace</a> projects, she sent her demo tape to his label, a receptive Drag City; in the wake of a divorce from her husband, she also relocated to Chicago.

After a self-titled EP collection of demo material appeared in the summer of 1996, Frost began recording her debut LP with members of <a href="spotify:artist:6Xuaooorz7j46y1UrWxXMd">Gastr del Sol</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3q6NWJJpclIcRNP7AQwMWq">Eleventh Dream Day</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:4C6mJ6VZtsBnwzGKZmmzeF">the High Llamas</a>; the result, the superb Calling Over Time, was issued in 1997. Telescopic followed a year later. Love Is Real (1999) featured artwork by <a href="spotify:artist:0ihBDeJlIlXo4LFfAllsGm">the Sea and Cake</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:4Vtlz5IfA9y4EBwmp20wwk">Sam Prekop</a>. Wonder Wonder, which followed in summer 2001, included production work by <a href="spotify:artist:52ZFTGbQ9miWMX8JYBvtOO">Steve Albini</a>. Four years later, Frost returned with the excellent It's a Game. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
