The Dark Stuff Podcast: The Interviews

On this episode, I am interviewing an excellent, new band called Hair Person. The band has just released its debut album, Dorsia. Hair Person is an electronic duo consisting of Sara Bertuldo (vocals, synths) and Erin Feichtinger (drums). The band's sound is a potent mix of dark, 80s and 90s synth music with pop song sensibilities. Folks mighty know Sara from her lengthy experience in the Omaha music scene - including being in the bands See Through Dresses and Millions of Boys. With this new project, Sara has moved to synths, and is the sole lead singer. Erin has been playing for a few years, but this is actually her first band.You can find the band's music on their bandcamp: https://hairperson.bandcamp.com/album... or on the streamers. Find The Dark Stuff on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thedarkstuff

I conducted this interview with Annie Clark (aka St. Vincent) on April 1, 2014 in the basement of Sokol Auditorium (now called The Admiral) where she was performing that evening. This was during the "Digital Witness" tour, and was about a week before Annie fronted Nirvana during the band's induction ceremony to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She was touring in support of her self-titled, fourth album; it was the first for her new record label, Loma Vista. I was able to upgrade the audio from my original 2014 posting, and am including a little bit of the interview that was edited out of my original.Find The Dark Stuff on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thedarkstuff

This episode features my interview with the legendary guitarist and founding member of KISS, Ace Frehley! Ace helped form KISS in 1973 and remained in the band until 1982, when he embarked on a solo career. In 1996, he re-joined KISS for a reunion tour, and remained in the band until 2002. Ace Frehley, along with the three other original members of KISS, were recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.I conducted this interview with Ace during the run-up to the release of his solo album, Anomaly, in 2009. This was his first solo release in 20 years, and the expectations were high. He and his band were about to begin an international tour in support of the album, and that tour began in Council Bluffs, IA, which is a mere 10 minutes from midtown Omaha. I have been a lifelong KISS fan, and this was, literally, a dream come true for me. I hope you enjoy the episode. This interview has never been aired anywhere. It is 100% exclusive to this podcast.Find The Dark Stuff on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thedarkstuff
