Untamed Melody

Untamed Melody:

With words and homemade audio, the songwriter documents the birth of a few melodies and, hopefully, a song.

“I started violin with the Suzuki method when I was 4. The “mother tongue” was the basic tenet of this method: while kids are malleable and learning language, teach them the language of music through repetition and molding. This is the way melodies got into my bones. I would chew my cereal to melodies. I would breathe in and out to melody and at some point early on I began to whistle. If I wasn’t sleeping or talking, I was whistling.”

“When I hear the old albums now, it surprises me how restless and energetic they are. There are a lot of ideas packed in there: so many segues and intros and outros and bridges and diversions from the song. The performances sound like, well, you’re 23 and can’t contain the amount of energy you have. Technically, I’m like, ‘Wow, how the hell did I do that?’”

“I went into this big phase of playing solo and developing this whole self-sufficient, self-contained thing and just toured like crazy. I could pick up and go anywhere, indulging that solitary impulse for years. It became this weird ritual where the audience were my band; I needed them for support. The solo shows are still, I have to say, a bit more gratifying. But you feel like a monk. You’re going for days without laughing or speaking sometimes. It’s a devotional kind of experience.”
