Overview""Star-Crossed & Shot Through: Judee Sill's Bittersweet Biography"" unveils the poignant and powerful story of Judee Sill, a gifted singer-songwriter whose celestial melodies concealed a tumultuous life of crime, addiction, heartbreak, and redemption. Born in 1944 in Los Angeles, Sill's early years were marked by tragedy, including the death of her father and a strained relationship with her mother. Her tumultuous upbringing led her down a path of rebellion and substance abuse, culminating in a prison sentence. During her incarceration, she found solace in music, learning to play the organ and composing songs that would later define her unique sound. After her release, Sill emerged as a pioneering artist, blending elements of folk, gospel, and baroque pop to create a sound that was both ethereal and deeply personal. Despite critical acclaim, her music remained largely underappreciated during her lifetime. Tragically, Sill's life was cut short in 1979 at the age of 35.
