“One of my favourite things in the world is getting together in a room with some songwriters and literally with some, alchemical, kind of magical force getting something out of the ether. At the end of the day you leave the room and maybe there’s something that’s captured an emotional feeling, a memory, and then just moulding it in to something beautiful.”
In this two part episode of Fishing For The Truth, Nia is joined by the talented Welsh Singer-songwriter Steve Balsamo. Founding member of country rock band The Storys, Steve’s career has taken him from the West End stage to travelling the world as both a solo artist and a collaborator with some amazing people. In this, Part 1, Nia and Steve have a riveting conversation that goes beyond music to another dimension, literally!
Watch Part 2 here.
Steve on Fishing for the Truth
Nia has a rare ability to really get to the heart of a subject, very gently. She has a poise and grace that coupled with intelligence and intuition always makes for a deep conversation.
I opened up in our interview more than in any other I can remember, and I look forward to more of Nia's fishing soon.
