Musician/cartoonist/fine artist Geneviève Elverum, with her daughter.
Geneviève Elverum (aka Geneviève Castrée), a talented multi-instrumentalist/vocalist with the great Anacortes, Washington psych-folk band Ô Paon and wife of indie-rock dynamo Phil Elverum (the Microphones, Mount Eerie), has been dealing with stage 4 pancreatic cancer since May 2015—a mere four months after giving birth to her daughter. To help defray the Elverums’ mounting healthcare costs, a GoFundMe account has been set up by her husband. You can contribute to it here. (Ô Paon’s sublime, haunting album below features Stranger Music Genius Lori Goldston playing cello on four tracks.)
