New Music
I heard a radio interview with Theresa Andersson on Studio360 that totally blew my mind.
She’s a one woman band — only she’s unlike any one woman band I’ve ever seen. She plays guitar, drums, and fiddle and also sings and samples vinyl records. The cool part is that she records all of this and loops it, building up layers of sound. And at the end of every performance, she erases it. Each performance is unique and spontaneous. You can watch the Studio360 interview here (scroll down) where she describes her technique, but for better pictures of what she does, check out this video and keep an eye on her feet.
There are three different songs streaming on her MySpace page, and she has several CDs available — which I’ve already bought. I’d love her music even if I didn’t know how it was made.
