Joey just finished a live performance video with the incredible Matt Turner on Cello. She decided to do a version of Mothlight off her 2007 album The Amber Sessions.
It was an absolute honor to be able to play amongst the ghostly atmosphere that remains at Butch Vig’s Smart Studio, known notable for having the album from Nirvana’s Nevermind as well as Smashing Pumpkins and Depeche Mode having recorded there.
The video should be ready soon for viewing.
Special thanks go out to Mike Zirkel and Wendy Schneider for shooting the footage of our performance.
Jo thinks it resembles an upper east side salon setting, in Ira Levin’s living room.
Matt Turner was exceptional as always. Even with Joey’s back turned to him, the vibes were pulsing through and magically blended two instruments into sonic poetry.
