Feist
I've always been a bit wary of keyboards because there's an invisibility to it - you're not really hitting anything.
Feist
But that constant adjustment and adaptation to your new environment, all the variables are the same. There's always a promoter, there's always a rider, there's always a shower, and there's always a stage.
Feist
If you calculate every single thing you could possibly need in your life, you would need no more than 200 people to keep all that afloat: a doctor, food, wine, cheese-eating friends, the person who makes paper, the shoemaker.
Feist
I haven't been living anywhere because I've been on tour for the past two years.
Feist
There's something about live recordings now that's too hi-fi.
Feist
No matter who weaves in and out of your life, regardless of the quality of those deep friendships and familyships, I'm the only common denominator at this point who's been with me the whole time. And there's this sense of trying to make sense of that ultimate solitude. It's not a negative or even a positive. It's just a fact.
Feist
I don't think that village idea of actually knowing what you're contributing to the whole exists anymore.
Feist
I was grateful to be away from all that familiarity, to have a chance to do something anonymously.
