Her Space Holiday is Marc Bianchi, a musician with roots in the California emo scene. During the early 90’s, he was part of the highly influential emo band Indian Summer. Marc began recording under the moniker Her Space Holiday in 1996. It started as a simple affair: just a four track, a couple of cheap microphones, a beat up drum set, a guitar, and the desire to make music on his own. The band released the album Young Machines in 2003. His most recent album is Past Presents the Future.

Since the release of Her Space Holiday’s first EP, the band has released six full length albums, several singles and EP’s, and a remix album. He has toured with the likes of Bright Eyes, The Faint, Pinback, Bob Mould, The American Analog Set and others. He has also remixed songs from REM, Duster, The Faint, The American Analog Set and others.

Initially, Bianchi was not interested in releasing Her Space Holiday’s first works, as he was focused on launching the bands associated with his new (now defunct) record label Audio Information Phenomena. However, after being approached by Chocolate River Industries to record a 12” EP, Her Space Holiday became Bianchi’s full time project.

It has been a slow build from the get go. Until the release of 2003’s “The Young Machines” (Mush/Wichita, V2/And Records) which reached #2 on CMJ’s top 200, garnered critical success in the music industry, even the 2004 Polish idol winner Monika Brodka covered HSH’s “My Girlriend’s Boyfriend” earning her the Polish equivalent to a grammy for “debut single of the year”. All of this has greatly expanded the HSH profile. So what now?

Yeah, that's a fair point. I can listen to a little bit of his later material (A Single Hand is great), but I just don't think it can compare to the likes of Home Is Where You Hang Yourself, The Young Machines, Manic Expressive or the like.

@nathfunn When I first listened to XOXO, the first thing that came to my mind is that Marc probably has a girlfriend now. Now, I'm not saying it's a bad album. I can listen to it. It's just not my album of choice.

I don't think I've ever met a 14 year old girl who likes Her Space Holiday, or would.

I think anything before XOXO should be respected. XOXO, or anything afterwards, it's iffy.

Why not just leave at indie. That's what Marc labels himself as in myspace.

indie pop is more like death cab for cutie or the postal service whereas shoegaze is my bloody valentine.

@xBlackxMoonx- Ummmm have you heard XOXO Panda? I think anyone that has would agree it's NOT electronic in the least. Thus I agree with Malarki, this is a pointless silly thing... but IF you were to tag things JHSH could be tagged differently depending on what album you are talking about, which was my point. You know, you're kinda retarded and I can't believe I added you to my friends list. Deleting now.
