Fingers of Fury (Road) with Kira Roessler (Black Flag, dos, AwkWard)
Four Strings and the Truth - Un pódcast de Sandy Smallens
Categorías:
Providing the rhythmic glue for Black Flag’s mid-80s heyday was just a starting point for bassist/songwriter/singer Kira Roessler. Now, an Oscar- and Emmy-winning dialogue editor (that’s half an EGOT!) based in LA, Kira still finds time - in 30-minute increments - to lay down intricate, dueling bass lines with her sometime bandmate (and ex-husband) Mike Watt in dos, while also releasing her first solo album in 2021, the aptly titled KIRA. Ms. Roessler bristles with insight and self-deprecating humor in this long awaited chat.
