S9 E9: Alianna Kalaba
Listen now
Description
Alianna Kalaba is a multi-instrumentalist, most renowned, I guess, for playing drums for the past 10/11 years with Cat Power and this beautifully distorted, snake-like bass with FACS, signing off from them with their latest album Still Life In Decay which is just a masterpiece - I’m totally in love with that record.  Alianna is also the first person that I’ve ever heard talk about a euphonium since I was playing the cello as a restless teenager which is a bloody long time ago. There is some serendipity about meeting Alianna which we talk about in the podcast (if you can get past my ridiculous ramblings in the intro). I continue to be blown away by these conversations, by these meetings of minds, by the similarities and differences in issues we face, our environments, our formative influences and how we navigate everything.  Alianna is a wonderful conversationalist and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. https://www.heysunday.co/i-wanna-jump-like-dee-dee I Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently. Giles Sibbald talks to musicians, DJ’s and producers about how they use an experimental mindset in every part of their lives. - brought to you by Hey Sunday, the mothership of the experimental mindset™ - logo and art by Tide Adesanya, Coppie and Paste
