About U.S. Girls
U.S. Girls is the long-running project of Meg Remy, an American-born musician who settled in Toronto. Early releases were home-recorded collages of distorted vocals, samples and tape noise, issued on small labels.
After signing to 4AD, Remy widened the sound considerably. Half Free and In a Poem Unlimited brought in disco, soul and girl-group pop, the latter recorded with members of the Toronto collective The Cosmic Range and her longtime collaborator Max Turnbull. Her lyrics often take on power, violence and politics, delivered through catchy, danceable arrangements, and the live show is a large band with horns and backing singers.
