Nunca falei aqui no blog mas não traduzo as entrevistas ou twits que eu posto para manter a integridade do que foi dito. Quem consegue entender ótimo, para quem não entende, corra e faça um cursinho de inglês, hoje em dia é obrigatório gente!
Did you get together and write for Volume 2, or was it still a mostly correspondance project like Volume 1?
MW: Well, Zooey writes all the lyrics and writes all the melodies and pretty much all the chord progressions. So in general, she writes all the songs and I just do the production and the guitars and the arrangement.
What is the best/most difficult part about working with each other?
MW: Well the heart of the record is the songs. The songs are incredible and the singing is incredible. As a producer, it makes life very easy when you’re working with a remarkable ingredient.
ZD: The best thing about working with Matt is that we always have fun in the studio because Matt is a very intuitive artist who always takes advantage of the present moment while recording. It never feels overly “precious” and it is always fun.
What’s the worst/most embarrassing thing that’s happened to you onstage?
MW: One of our backing vocalists got locked in the bathroom at a show in North Carolina. That was pretty funny. We thought we lost her.
ZD: A day onstage is always a good day!
Do you drink or smoke before a show or recording? If so, is it whiskey? Do you get that authentic Sixties country sound or mood?
ZD: I don’t drink or smoke, ever, actually. I really don’t believe that drinking and smoking is the magic behind old recordings. It would be much more apt to blame the microphones.
