Edith Frost

Edith Frost (born August 18, 1964) is an American singer-songwriter who describes her music as "pensive countrified psychedelia". Born in San Antonio, Texas, Frost moved to Brooklyn in 1990 where she played in the country bands the Holler Sisters, the Marfa Lights and Edith and Her Roadhouse Romeos. In 1996 she moved to Chicago after signing to the city's Drag City label, which released her demo as a self-titled EP. Debut album Calling Over Time was released in 1997, and has been followed by Telescopic (1998), Wonder Wonder (2001) and It's a Game (2005). All were produced by Rian Murphy except Telescopic, which was produced by Neil Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema from the band Royal Trux; Wonder Wonder was engineered by Steve Albini. Frost relocated to the San Francisco Bay area in 2006.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Temporary Loan

    by: Edith Frost

    I sing the blues most every night
    And i wait for the one i lost
    He snuck into my secret files
    And he read my mind
    He belongs to someone
    I know how she spells her name
    I'll consider another day
    Without the one i love
    Without the one i love
    Alone...
    He no longer loves me
    I'm supposed to forget about him
    I was just a harbor
    A temporary love
    A temporary love
    On loan...
    I think i know what's on his mind
    And i'll try to be satisfied
    He sneaks around my secret life
    And he wrote me down
    Someone else will help him
    I'll pretend to forget the past
    I'll look for a love that lasts
    A love that never dies
    A love that never dies
