Alynda Segarra is 36, or a little less than halfway through the average American lifespan.

In that comparatively brief time, though, the Hurray for the Riff Raff founder has been something of a modern Huck Finn, an itinerant traveller whose adventures prompt art that reminds us there are always other ways to live.

Hurray for the Riff Raff steadily rose from house shows to a major label, where Segarra became a pan-everything fixture of the modern from movement. But that Yoke became a burden, prompting Segarra to make the probing and poignant electronic opus ‘Life on Earth’ their Nonesuch debut.
