Today we are giving you the last video of our early Consouling Sounds-series (don't worry - season 2 is soon to start) by presenting the amazing Dana Schechter!We have already featured an interview with Dana a few months ago, but don't think that we are giving you the same thing twice, because we are not. This interview was done for Consouling Sounds' 24 Hours of Deep Listening event and it was based on a different set of question. As we always hold Dana in very, very high regard because of her awesome musicianship, we figured this would be an awesome way to end our first series of Consouling-related interviews (if you try to find the fifth and last installment of this series of video-interviews you should check back with consouling.veilofsound.com - maybe you can find it there ;-)This time we focused very much on her one-woman-project Insect Ark and how it developed and changed over the years, how she got into playing this kind of music and why reforming as a solo project also gave her a lot of freedom for playing shows alone and without being dependent on other people. A now without much further ado, enjoy the chat with the wonderful Dana Schechter!

Veil of Sound - Interview #14 - Dana Schechter [Insect Ark] (Consouling Sounds Special)

This show features bassist &amp; lap steel guitarist, Dana Schechter. When we recorded this, she was staying in Berlin after cutting a tour short for her band Insect Ark. She talks about how wild it was for the band and the crew. Someone may have had to sneak back into their home country, but that’s all I’m saying about that right now. Dana talks about growing up in the early 80’s Bay Area metal scene, driving around and hanging out with Cliff Burton; and how his death really made her focus on bass. She also talks about some incredible bands she’s been a part of, like Gifthorse, Angels Of Light, and Swans and the difficulties of being an independent artist. She’s recently released a new album by Insect Ark but it wasn’t easy. If you like heavy, instrumental music, buy it! Follow Dana @insectark. Follow us @performanceanx. Subscribe, rate, review, share.
