Rebecca Foon and Aliayta Foon-Dancoes are here to discuss their debut album, Reverie, studying at Princeton, their family dynamic and their respective early forays in classical music, how much formal music education can inform improvisation and punk rock, Rebecca’s work on the Lost River Music Festival and the Pathway to Paris initiative, how their feelings about the ecological inspiration behind Reverie are more melancholy since collective climate change mitigation targets have not been met, a conversation about the novel The Alchemist with Patti Smith and Jesse Paris Smith, what’s next, and much more.

Nomeansno (2011)

On a recent Kreative Kontrol episode, Mark Molnar mentioned his fondness for a radio interview I once conducted with Tom Holliston, John Wright, and Rob Wright from Canada’s greatest band, Nomeansno. And so, here’s that interview, which occurred over breakfast at the By the Way Café in Toronto, Ontario on April 5, 2011. It’s one of my most cherished work life experiences, so thank you again to Nomeansno, whose entire catalogue is now available on streaming services, and Alternative Tentacles is reissuing their catalogue in physical forms too.

To hear this entire conversation, subscribe to Kreative Kontrol on Patreon at the $6 U.S. tier or higher (a reminder that an annual subscription includes a discount compared to a monthly one).
