Dancing in your head: episode 28 - Sonya Waters
In this episode Dan is joined by local composer and musician Sonya Waters. They discuss her various bands, collaborations, and solo work. Most of the tracks played come from her recent pieces that journey into ambient, synths, and vocal processsing.
Sonya Waters has been apart of Aotearoa's music scene since the 80s, starting in the young punk scene and quickly moving into a great variety of approaches and explorations. Always seeking a voice that suits her current expression, Sonya has maintained a freshness in her music. Check out her Audio Culture profile here.
