Artist Interviews Damiana Interview

Natalie Chami of TALSounds and Whitney Johnson of Matchess have joined forces to create the experimental music project Damiana. They spoke with Features Co-Director Mick R about the origins of the band, making their new record Vines, techniques for improvising music, and how they came up with their band's name. 

If I'm having a good improv set usually something happens in that set where it's like, "Oh wow! That  made me curious!" ... Something strange happens, you hear a sound that's unfamiliar, and you're like, "I want to try to keep pursuing that as long as it makes sense." - Whitney Johnson

Vines is out now on Hausu Mountain Records.

Produced by Mick R.
