"I think songwriting is interesting because once someone else is listening to it, it's not about you anymore..."
Nina Pelligra is best known for her a capella looper covers and solo a capella recordings, which she arranges, records, and produces by herself. She has a bachelor's degree in music from Syracuse University. Nina and I go back a handful of years, having initially met at a music conference. She is a person who radiates effervescence. Nina took on the challenge of remixing my upcoming single, "Hold the Wick", and you'll hear her talk about her approach and technique. Here are some other highlights of our conversation:
- Nina's most interesting takeaway from attending a music conference. (2:16)
- Nina is remotely helping a capella groups to have professionally recorded/mixed/produced music. (12:01)
- We discuss women in the engineering & production part of the music industry. (14:36)
