Lisa Loeb Interview
PPND-First off, thanks for taking time to take part in this interview with PPND.
If you had to describe your music to someone who has not heard it before, what would you say it was like?
If you had to describe your music to someone who has not heard it before, what would you say it was like?
Lisa- Singer songwriter with a band. Lyric oriented songs.
PPND- You
recently released your seventh studio album entitled “No Fairy Tale”. It’s
a bit different from some of your previous work. I feel that you could
gain a whole new audience with it as well as satisfy your old fans.
How would you describe it?
Lisa- It's more in the
pop/punk/rock vein than just a singer songwriter with a band who rocks
sometimes. This album is still centered in the songs, but it's more
energetic and punchy.
PPND- You co-produced it with New Found Glory’s Chad Gilbert. How was it working with him?
Lisa- It
was awesome working with Chad. He and I had a great thing going- we
were able to work quickly to get the performances we liked and put
together arrangements with the band. He had a lot of things worked out
in his head too, and had some great direction for me vocally.
PPND- There are a few guest collaborations on this record, how did Tegan and Sara, and Hello Goodbye get involved with the project and what did they bring to the table?
PPND- You have recently performed on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno as well as Conan. What was that like? Any interesting stories?
Lisa Loeb- I
love playing with my band, so I was really proud to play with them on
Television and Chad Gilbert also joined us on those shows. I loved
playing my lucite flying V, an anniversary present from my husband, on
Conan! I also loved seeing Leno and Piers Morgan on the side of the
stage bobbing their heads to the "No Fairy Tale" performance.
PPND- You have a string of shows coming up in March. Can you give some details on them?
Lisa- I'll
play with my band Nine Stories, and we'll do a lot of older songs,
including "Stay ( I missed you)" as well as introducing folks to the new
songs. I always take a little break from the band too to play some
requests from the audience.
PPND- What are you looking forward to on the upcoming tour?
Lisa- I'm
looking forward to playing with the band! It's my first band tour in
awhile. I've been doing more acoustic solo or duo tours over the last
few years as well as children's concerts, so this will be fun. Plus, I
get to play electric guitar too!
PPND- The last time I saw you perform was September of 2004 at The El Mocambo in Toronto. Any future plans on returning to Canada?
Lisa- I'd love to come to Canada! We have to book a tour there.
PPND- What’s
the weirdest/craziest thing that has ever happened on tour or at a
show? I’m sure you have encountered some seriously bizarre things over
the years.
Lisa- There was one show back in the day where some slam dancing erupted. That's a strange sight at one of my shows!
PPND- If you could narrow it down, what would be some of your most rewarding moments as an artist?
Lisa- I
love meeting some of my music heroes, like Elton John, David Bowie,
Olivia Newton John, and more. I also loved collaborating with some of
my favorites on a songwriting trip to Cuba, like Burt Bachrach. I also
love concerts like one I played in Madison Square Garden where I was up
there playing with my acoustic guitar and the entire audience was
singing along. I also love people telling me their stories about how my
music helped them in certain situations.
PPND- What can your fans expect from you in 2013?
Lisa- I'll be on tour, hopefully in many cities, and also I have an illustrated book with a cd for kids (the second in the series) Lisa Loeb's Songs for Movin' and Shakin': The Air Band Song and Other Toe-Tapping Tunes coming out in April
