About this ebook

"Praiseworthy."-The Guardian
The most comprehensive book on Kate Bush to date, featuring exclusive interview content with Kate herself, close friends, and collaborators
Kate Bush: the subject of murmured legend and one of the most distinctive musicians of the modern era. Running Up That Hill: 50 Visions of Kate Bush is a multi-faceted biography of this famously elusive figure, viewing her life and work from fresh and illuminating angles. Featuring details from the author's one-on-one conversations with Kate-as well as vignettes of her key songs, albums, videos, and concerts-this artful, candid, and often brutally funny portrait introduces a refreshingly real Kate Bush. Tom Doyle also intertwines vivid reconstructions of transformative moments in her career and insights from the friends and collaborators closest to her, including her photographer brother John Carder Bush and fellow artists David Gilmour, John Lydon, and Youth.
With Netflix's Stranger Things inspiring a new generation of fans, Kate Bush has made an incredible resurgence in popularity and has broken new records. Running Up That Hill is a vibrant and comprehensive re-examination of the artist and her many creative landmarks.
