50 Foot Wave is an American alternative rock band, formed in 2003. The band is fronted by Kristin Hersh, who writes the group’s songs with collaborative efforts from the other group members in composing and arranging the music. The group’s name is a reference to both an illustration and the term for the 50-foot sound wave of the lowest F tone audible to the human ear. The band sometimes abbreviates its name as L’~, using the Roman numeral for 50.
History
Kristin Hersh spent more than a decade previously playing with Throwing Muses, releasing several solo albums as well. Her solo tours in the late 1990s and early 2000s focused on acoustic guitar playing. In 2003, she launched the more electric guitar-oriented 50 Foot Wave.
The band was designed as a power trio, with a lineup including drummer Rob Ahlers and Throwing Muses bassist Bernard Georges. Hersh contributes guitar lyrics and vocals to this project. The band’s first live performance was recorded in Burbank in October 2003 and released on a very limited basis as an official bootleg. Among other live appearances internationally in 2004, 50 Foot Wave performed a month-long residency of shows in January that year at the Silverlake Lounge, while the group was based in the Los Angeles area. The group’s self-titled studio mini-album was co-released in March 2004 by the band’s ThrowingMusic label and 4AD Records.

Has anyone noticed the _jawdropping_ version of Your Ghost by 50 Foot Wave? I first heard it years ago on their myspace and was blown away. Dunno, maybe it's just me being overenthusiastic but for some reason I think it's an amazing rendition.

Yeah, and there are higher-quality versions (320K) of a number of these tracks available from the Free Music Archive as well: http://freemusicarchive.org/search/?quicksearch=50+foot+wave. Trading in a 128K version of "Hot Pink, Distorted" for a 320K one = love.
