Interview: Dead Sara Lead Singer Emily Armstrong

Emily Armstrong discusses how her love of blues, folk and punk brought Dead Sara's hard-rocking debut album to life.

"There's certain influences that I look to in songwriting, which is a lot of folk rock from the sixties. And then there's the influence I get from watching people on stage like Iggy Pop or Janis Joplin. So there's different kinds of influences with artists in certain ways. A lot of the '60s and '70s stuff was a big influence on Siouxsie and I, from the rock of that era, the folk of that era, the punk rock and the blues." ~~Emily Armstrong - Lead Vocalist, Dead Sara
