HEXTERIA
Residing at the crossroads of electronica and dream pop, Hexteria’s brand of hauntingly seductive music is rooted in the dark and ethereal. Imbued with poetic lyrics, and floaty synth work juxtaposed against a kaleidoscope of weighty motifs, the Portland-based artist evokes complex and cinematic emotions.
"Erotic Thriller is epic, ambitious, genius, lovely, strange and beautiful. A mammoth achievement! Why she is not number one eludes me. Pure class.
What a brilliant mind!"
- Steve Kilbey (The Church)

Erotic Thriller (2022)
Full length album released digitally along with a narrative version in the form of a companion book available in physical and audio format.
The physical book includes the companion story as well as song lyrics and other complimentary poetry and prose, with illustrations by Lindsey Strong.
The two-part digital audiobook weaves the story and songs together for a completely immersive listening experience.
"An album that may make you want to drop what you're doing (your clothes, perhaps?) and just bathe in the sound. A powerful voice with a composer's knack for range, dynamics and subtlety. There are SO many perfect sonic and compositional touches and moments with each track. I was well-impressed with her prior album as well. Yet another artist Lynch should've snapped up for the end of the TP [Twin Peaks] The Return episodes. 100%.”

Listen
"Hexteria’s music is alchemy, rich in spiritual texture, brimming with good medicine for the soul and spirit, nuanced and beautiful beyond measure. Like some medieval tapestry or Persian carpet, she weaves her deeply embodied voice with instruments and sounds to create music that carries listeners across a threshold of imagination. Hexteria recalls to us that time when art was the practice of the sacred and a revelation of one’s soul-making process."

"Hexteria possesses a voice with otherworldly qualities. If you dare to listen to her in person you are likely to suffer an acute case of the gooseflesh."
