Q&A with Lissie

What music have you been listening to recently?

Late last year Jeff Lynne's ELO came out with a new record "Alone in the Universe" and I cannot get enough of it!

I really like Kendrick Lamar as well and always go back to the classic sounds of Bobbie Gentry, John Prine & Townes Van Zandt

Are you inspired at all by specific books, songs or films?

I like Murakami's "1Q84" and Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy for the idea of multiple realities existing simultaneously! My new song "Hero" delves into the concept.

What are you looking forward to for the rest of 2016?

I'm looking forward to sharing my new music while also fixing up and moving into my new home, planting trees, a garden and finding the right balance between work and home.

What was your first gig, and what's been the best so far?

My dad took me to Neil Diamond when I was little and that was pretty cool! It was for the opening of an arena in the area I grew up in. When I lived in Hollywood, I saw Willie Nelson with a big group of friends at the Hollywood bowl and it was a blast & great show.

My Wild West is out now
