The Cameron Knowler Interview

An Arizona-based multi-instrumentalist, recording artist, educator, and all-around student of sonic soundscapes, Cameron Knowler grew up in a rather isolated environment in the Midwest, eventually leading to the musician’s ecstatic entry into the wide world of sound, tonal theory, harmonious history, and constant contemplation on the ideology of instrumentation. With the highly anticipated self-titled album “CRK” set for release in April on Worried Songs, Knowler transcends time and space by combining the past with a contemporary cosmicism that radiates a revolutionary realm in music culture like that of the greats before him.

The Eamon Fogarty Interview

New Hampshire-based multi-instrumentalist, composer, singer/songwriter Eamon Fogarty has been sonically surfing the shadowy landscape of music’s melancholic memory for the last decade since the release of his official 2015 debut “WHERE DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD LIVE?” With comparisons to Scott Walker and Mark Hollis’ Talk Talk, Fogarty blends the utility of the universe by bridging the gap between melody and meditation in just under an hour. With 2019s “Blue Values” putting the young musician on the melodic map, Fogarty takes his listeners on yet another atmospheric adventure with last year’s “I’m an animal now” as he guides us through his joyous journey from King Crimson-infested waters to the more refined ecosystem of tonal texture and poetic precision.

The Michael Cashmore Interview

From England to the endlessly ethereal plains of elemental existence, Michael Cashmore, composer, multi-disciplinary musician, who has an intuitive connection to Mysticism, is a composer, multi-disciplinary musician, worked with artists such as Marc Almond, Nick Cave, Bill Fay, Anohni, and, of course, David Tibet, and Current 93. His sonically sophisticated journey began in the early to mid-1980s with early works such as “Nature and Organisation” and a cerebral introduction into 8mm film that poetically placed him in good grace within his creative community. Influenced by the iconic Throbbing Gristle, Psychic T.V., and the transcendental world of the late Genesis P-Orridge, with who Cashmore had befriended in later years, it wouldn’t be till the following decade that the young musician joined yet another fundamental favorite, Current 93. A non-planetary reality built on prolifically poetic politics, observations on the occult, and other various esoteric elements, Cashmore became the band’s main composer during his iconic involvement and has since secured himself into feverish fibers of underground music universalism.
