Sky Motel is the fourth studio album by the American musician Kristin Hersh, released in 1999.
[8][9] Recorded at New Orleans' Kingsway Studio, the album was produced by Trina Shoemaker.
[10] Salon called the album Hersh's "most technically complex, aglow with feedback cascades, pulsing drum loops and sampled nature sounds that suggest a vast, empty night.
"[11] The Salt Lake Tribune thought that "'A Cleaner Light', 'Echo' and 'Caffeine' are destined to be classics in the Hersh catalog, offering wrenching lyrics that make Jewel or Alanis Morissette's so-called poetry sound like processed, angst-by-numbers in comparison.
Drum loops for tracks 3 & 11 are provided by David Narcizo.
