But I think that transcends men.it’s just people. I have worked with amazing men and men that need kicks in the face with a golf shoe. I hope he healed well.Īlso, has working with men changed your views or perspective on any subject/life matter? But before they could the whole crowd turned on the guy and dragged him outside. This is gonna turn into a brawl.” They were ready to throw down. And started to take off their instruments. Except for one time, we were playing a club and in a creepy quiet moment some guy yelled “SHOW YOUR TITS!” My band just stood scary still for a moment. I often forget I'm the only girl tone honest. The guys are just respectful enough to be gentlemen, and just disrespectful enough to be real friends. We load in together, do interviews together, sleep on the bus together. it takes every one of us to get it done. Well, if we are talking about special treatment, nobody gets any. In your band Beasto Blanco you are the only female member – how is it to work with men, especially in the rock music scene? Are there any fun stories or memories that you can share? Adding classical, electronic, heavy blues. we all share the same heartbeat. I'm currently loving listening to genres outside of Rock, and making it bend into Beasto. He taught me that anything you can think up, you can make come to life on stage or screen. I also had an unprecedented education by touring with my dad for 12 years. Or what I would do on stage if I were up there. I used to love listening to records when I was a kid and I’d daydream about how I would direct the video. So I know what I love, and want to create more of that. It's weird, almost every time I come out of the car hours later going, “WHERE IN THE HELL IN MY BRAIN WAS THAT IDEA LIVING?!” I get a lot of my ideas when I go out to the desert and drive. I don’t stop myself or say “no that won’t work”. Chuck and Brother Latham will write a song, I'll get the demo and start letting my mind loose. Tell us about your music and your creative process – how do you come up with songs, visuals and how do you coordinate everything within your band?Įveryone in the band has a very specific role. But on a more intimate level, I was on stage with Beasto Blanco and I looked down and a group of girls were dressed as my character.
Or a Nightmare I guess. depending on who you are and how you feel about being on stage. The rush of that many people screaming at you is right out of a dream. There were almost 100,000 people at The Churchill Downs in Kentucky.
Sharing the stage with the Rolling Stones was pretty surreal. In one of your interviews you said: there is nothing like to be on stage” – can you share your most memorable experience? I actually think that’s a bumper sticker I saw somewhere. It gives me extra time to go “I have this idea, and it's totally impossible, it would take an army, so let’s start tonight!” It also helps when you really love what you are doing, it doesn’t seem like work. I think especially now with being stuck at home. I absolutely love feeling the rush of being busy. Someone just told me that most people don’t do 30 things in a day. You are involved in so many activities and projects – how do you manage to find time for everything?
