Dry

DRY
 
 
Dry  is the debut studio album by English singer-songwriter and musician PJ Harvey, released on Too Pure Records on 30 March 1992.  The album was recorded at The Icehouse, a local studio in Yeovil, United Kingdom.  The first 5000 LPs and first 1000 CDs included demo versions of the album’s tracks, and Dry was subsequently released in the United States on Indigo Records in the US.  Both versions were released in 1992.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
Polly Jean Harvey formed a trio in 1991 called PJ Harvey with Steve Vaughan (bass guitar) and Robert Ellis (drums).  They became a sensation on the indie-rock circuit, with their debut album Dry (1992) and particularly Rid of Me (1993) being released to wide acclaim. 
 

By this time, the original trio had broken up, and Harvey was now on her own; but she continued to release her albums under the name PJ Harvey with her full name Polly Jean Harvey given in the credits.
