Primarily known as a vocalist and guitarist, she is also proficient with a wide range of instruments. Harvey began her career in 1988 when she joined local band Automatic Dlamini as a vocalist, guitarist, and saxophone player. The band's frontman, John Parish, would become her long-term collaborator.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.islanddefjam.com/artist/bio.aspx?artistID=7333 )〕 In 1991, she formed an eponymous trio and subsequently began her professional career. The trio released two studio albums, ''Dry'' (1992) and ''Rid of Me'' (1993) before disbanding, after which Harvey continued as a solo artist. Since 1995, she has released a further six studio albums with collaborations from various musicians including John Parish, former bandmate Rob Ellis, Mick Harvey, and Eric Drew Feldman and has also worked extensively with record producer Flood. Among the accolades she has received are the 2001 and 2011 Mercury Prize for ''Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea'' (2000) and ''Let England Shake'' (2011) respectively—the only artist to have been awarded the prize twice—eight Brit Award nominations, six Grammy Award nominations and two further Mercury Prize nominations. ''Rolling Stone'' awarded her 1992's Best New Artist and Best Singer Songwriter and 1995's Artist of the Year, and listed ''Rid of Me'', ''To Bring You My Love'' (1995) and ''Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea'' on its 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list.〔〔 In 2011, she was awarded for Outstanding Contribution To Music at the NME Awards. In June 2013, she was awarded an MBE for services to music. ==Early life== Harvey was born on 9 October 1969 in Bridport, Dorset, as the second child of Ray and Eva Harvey, who owned a stone quarrying business, and grew up on the family's farm in Corscombe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jphuntley.co.uk/pjh/FullPages/fullbiography.htm )〕 During her childhood, she attended school in nearby Beaminster and her parents introduced her to music that would later influence her work, including blues music, Captain Beefheart and Bob Dylan.〔 As a teenager, Harvey began learning saxophone and joined an eight-piece instrumental group Bologne, based in Dorset. She was also a guitarist with folk duo the Polekats, with whom she wrote some of her earliest material.〔 After finishing school, Harvey attended Yeovil College and attended a visual arts foundation course.〔〔Harvey, PJ.
