‘Writers and songwriters can create memorable shared works’ – The Undercover Soundtrack inside out: SJ Tucker
Posted by Roz Morris @Roz_Morris in Undercover Soundtrack on September 9, 2012
‘The more writers and songwriters cross-pollinate and cross-promote our work, the more people will find out about us’
This weekend I’m celebrating the anniversary of the launch of My Memories of a Future Life. And since the story explores reincarnation in reverse, I thought I’d turn the Undercover Soundtrack inside out and talk to musicians who have been inspired by novels.
Today I’m hosting SJ Tucker, who has a long-running collaboration with award-winning fantasy novelist Catherynne M Valente. Their partnership goes way beyond a song for a book trailer; Cat writes song hints into her manuscripts for Sooj to find, and they tour together with their very own multimedia song and story circus. Sooj is talking about all that – and how she turns a novel into songs – today on the Red Blog.
