Larkin Grimm is a former member of The Dirty Projectors.
She has shared bills with Devendra Banhart, Spires that in the Sunset Rise, Espers, Mi and Lau and Brightblack Morning Light.

She grew up in the foothills of the Appalachians with a family of singers and fiddle players. Harpoon reflects these rustic influences through a modern psychedelic filter. Her voice is aligned with that of Linda Perhacs and Buffy Saint Marie. Her instrumentation includes dulcimer, pennywhistle, bells, drums and guitar.

Michael Gira says, "Larkin is a magic woman. She lives in the mountains in north Georgia. She collects bones, smooth stones, and she casts spells. She worships the moon. She is very beautiful, and her voice is like the passionate cry of a beast heard echoing across the mountains just after a tremendous thunder storm, when the air is alive with electricity. I don't consider her folk though - she is pre folk, even pre- music. She is the sound of the eternal mother and the wrath of all women. She goes barefoot everywhere, and her feet are leathery and filthy. She wears jewels, glitter, and glistening insects in her hair. She's great! We're doing a record together soon for YGR. " Young God Records
 

She was awful last time I saw her. Tried way too hard to get "into" it and then when Rising Appalachia (who were really really good) played after her she sat at the side interrupting their songs every so often by starting to singly fairly randomly along with them. You could tell RA were trying not to say anything but clearly didn't want her to be doing this.
