Interview: Angela Sheik.
Angela Sheik is a compelling 21st century singer-songwriter who doesn’t just sit at a piano or play a guitar but with live looping creates her own elaborate orchestrations using those instruments plus autoharp, theremin, flute and whatever else she can get her hands on. Her album, Home Before Dark, is a miraculous construction of provocative, sometimes humorous songs where she tackles themes of romance, religion and hardship. It’s all built around her theatrical approach, often drawing comparisons to Kate Bush as she layers her voice into soothing choirs and Andrews Sisters style choruses. Angela Sheik talks about music, life and looping.
