amy ray : sound opinions : chicago public radio : 5 dec 08
“This week Jim and Greg welcome Amy Ray. Ray is best known as one-half of the duo The Indigo Girls. But a few years ago she also launched a solo career to indulge her inner punk rocker. This year she released Didn’t It Feel Kinder on her own independent label Daemon Records. Jim and Greg talk to Amy about her two decades long career and her experience on both the indie and major side of the recording industry. They also invite her and her touring band, two of whom are members of The Butchies, to perform some of their new songs.”
Here is the link to the show notes, complete with links to the live songs she played in the studio. I’ll try to a file upload widget on this site so you can directly upload from here instead of clicking through a zillion links. Also, if you listen to the complete show, amy appears around the 9:30 mark.

courtesy of sandy on indigovortex.com, here is a newly listed interview/podcast with amy ray. i haven’t listened to the interview yet, but it appears amy and band played a few songs in studio, as noted in the set list below. the date on the flickr photoset says october 29, (assuming they recorded the segment while in chicago for her tour), but i guess it just aired last night. the producers or whomever made a blantant error in the listing, stating that ‘put it out for good’ is from the new album. i just sent an email asking them ever-so-nicely to correct it. sheesh!
oh, and how HOT does a-ray look? yum!
