Lise.FM - Jason Balla, NE-HI

Lise.FM

Jason Balla, guitarist & vocalist from Chicago-based NE-HI, joins me in the studio to talk about the musical influences he brings to the table when writing for and playing with the band. From Wire, to Brian Eno's No New York compilation, to Women, he walks me through the artists that have taught him the minimalist, no-wave sound he knows and loves. We also chat about where he gets inspiration from when it comes to song-writing, what the band likes to listen to on the road (shoutout, U Talkin' U2 To Me?) and he tells me about collaborating with Jamilia Woods.
