Nancy Wilson, September 2009: Now we’re working on a new album, which is again more of a rootsier thing. We’re working with Ben Mink, the producer who got a Grammy with k.d. lang for “Ingenue” and worked with Barenaked Ladies and did stuff with Feist on her last solo album as well. He’s a producer we’ve sort of been trying to court for 10 years, and we find that the new songs are really sounding incredible.
In some ways, it’s a fresh sound that still has its roots in the very beginning sounds, the very first sounds we had in the ’70s, when everybody was playing in the same room, with eye contact and having a real human dialogue musically – not a digital construct. That’s an exciting sound for us to be working on right now. It’s coming out pretty early in the new year. We’re getting close. Between the tours, we’re doing the album.
