Die in Toronto lebende Songwriterin Skye Wallace wird ihr neues Album „Terribly Good“ morgen am 28. Oktober bei Six Shooter Records veröffentlichen. Passend dazu haben wir der Künstlerin unsere 10 Wunderfragen an gestellt.
Frontstage Magazine: If you could trade places with a musician/band for a concert….
Skye Wallace: Peaches, she rocks so hard and I wish I could have a million costume changes and the wildest stage sets
Frontstage Magazine: If one of you drops out at the next concert, but you have to play, then…
Skye Wallace: We’d wing it! I’ve got a really talented band and we would rearrange as needed to make the show happen. My keyboardist is also a sick bass player, my guitarist is also a drummer, my drummer is also a guitarist, my bassist is also a wicked vocalist, and I’ve also done a million stripped down shows with different smaller configurations – the show must go on and we would figure it out together!
Frontstage Magazine: If you looked at your Wikipedia entry 10 years from now, it would say …
Skye Wallace: Amazing nacho blog, Grammy award winner.
Frontstage Magazine: If you could host your own festival, then…
Skye Wallace: I’ve played a lot of festivals and I’ve seen how much work it takes to bring one to fruition and honestly I don’t know if I could pull it off! But one time I played a festival that had a massage booth backstage, so I would definitely have one of those.
Frontstage Magazine: If your absolute favorite band/artist would play with you in the opening program, then…
Skye Wallace: I would absolutely grovel at the feet of Neil Young.
Frontstage Magazine: If you had to do any job well for the rest of your life, you would…
Skye Wallace: I think music is my calling for this life, but if I gun-to-my-head had to choose another vocation, I’d be a midwife. Or a lawyer. Or a documentary film maker.
Frontstage Magazine: If, starting tomorrow, every human being could travel back and forth to any number of parallel Earths untouched by humans, then…
Skye Wallace: That would certainly ease my climate distress! I love these questions, by the way, 10/10.
Frontstage Magazinre: If your biggest idol asked you for some advice, it would be….
Skye Wallace: “How do you get your hair like that?” I’ve got a lot of hair and it’s a problem for me, but it’s also a great topic for conversation and I get asked this a lot.
Frontstage Magazine: If you had everyone’s attention for 30 seconds, then…
Skye Wallace: Everyone? Like the whole world? I’d like to say I’d make everyone listen to part of one of my songs, but I’d probably end up Rick Rolling everybody. (Play Rick Astley’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’)
Frontstage Magazine: If you wake up tomorrow and don’t know anything about your band in the morning…
Skye Wallace: I would cry cause they’re also my best friends, so I’d lose all my best friends and that would be a bad day for me. Just try to replace the most talented and lovely people on the planet, it’s impossible!
