#52 Bernard Fanning (Powderfinger)

from HearSej Hosted by Seja Vogel

Seja talks to her guest Bernard Fanning (Powderfinger) about the first bands he loved: The Beatles, David Bowie and Kiss and how important conviction is in songwriting. Bernard and Seja share memories of the Brisbane music scene in the 90s/early 00s and how they both aim to write perfectly slick sounding music. Bernard tells Seja about his compulsion to write, his work ethic and his songwriting process. They chat about memory, the difference between being a singer and a performer, and Powderfinger’s recent one-night-only reformation. Bernard’s strange show story was illustrated by Andrea Portela Moreno @andrea_portela_moreno All illustrations can be seen on the HearSej Facebook page and on instagram @hearsejpodcast Donate to Beyond Blue here: https://www.beyondblue.org.au/get-involved/make-a-donation Donate to Support Act here: https://supportact.org.au/donate-now/
