Pauline Anna Strom

Throughout the 1980s, San Francisco-based composer Pauline Anna Strom released a series of LPs and cassettes consisting of strange, celestial new age and ambient music inspired by nature, science fiction, and ancient history. She abandoned music by the end of the decade and focused on spiritual healing, but following the release of a well-received compilation of her work, she recorded her final album, Angel Tears in Sunlight, which was released in 2021.
