the interview show: glass candy
Ida No, one half of italo-disco act Glass Candy, was exhausted mentally, emotionally and spiritually after Glass Candy’s show, yet she was still gracious enough to chat with us in the dingy backroom at Richard’s On Richards. Collapsed on some steps, she sipped from a 4-litre jug of water to re-hydrate as the crew tore down the stage.
Most bands never want to do interviews after a show. Typically, they want to chat at soundcheck or sometime before the performance. When the show is over, bands want to party and hang out with their pals. Rumored to be very shy, Ida No likes to leave the time before a show to meditate, to prepare herself for the audience.
Although she was ready to sleep the entire ride home to Oregon, I still managed to get Ida to talk about metaphysics, the pet rabbit that brought Glass Candy together—and I even got her to rap a verse from Lil’ Troy’s “Wanna Be A Baller”!
