Episode description

PEG Interviews Latvian Singer Songwriter Visual Artist Waterflower

Waterflower has a history of creating experimental music and music videos. Her live shows are audio-visual and rich in soundscapes, created by the artist's signature vocals, synthesizers (using real plants to generate sound), and digital sampling.

Her latest album, Balta Gaisma (White Light) is a step towards pop-music. While not leaving her experimental leanings behind, she embraces 21st Century pop, exploring the cadences of Hyper-pop and PC Music. These songs range from the haunting Dawning to the guitar heavy Chemtrail, via the LGBTQA+ positive message of Find It! and Palm vs Palm - a track composed with capacitive synths attached to plants. It is nominated for two Zelta Mikrofons awards: Best Experimental Music Album and Best Album Design.

Waterflower has toured extensively, but unfortunately had to cancel a large tour of Asia due to Covid. On her travels she has met her hero Brian Eno, and appeared at Positivus Festival, Manchester Folk Horror Festival and Ladyfest Tallinn.
