Perhaps no figure embodies the cooler edge of the postpunk epoch than musician, singer, songwriter, and producer Kim Gordon, a founding member of Sonic Youth, participant in numerous other musical projects, and vital solo artist. It’s in the latter capacity that Gordon, who has been cited as an influence by creatives ranging from Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna to filmmaker Sofia Coppola, will perform at Basilica Hudson on June 12 with her band in support of her newly released second solo album, The Collective.
