We’re pleased to announce that the Innerviews: Music Without Borders book is due to be published in late 2009 by Abstract Logix, the world's premier jazz and fusion label responsible for new releases by John McLaughlin, Jimmy Herring, Gary Willis, and many others.

The book will feature exclusive interviews with artists including Bjork, Bill Bruford, David Sylvian, Martin Carthy, Tangerine Dream, Noa (Achinoam Nini), Bill Laswell, Jonas Hellborg, Ani DiFranco, David Torn, Public Enemy, Vernon Reid, Jon Anderson, Bela Fleck, Chris Whitley, and others.

In addition, the book will feature beautiful cover art by Andy Rinehart, the renowned visual artist and musician also responsible for the 2008 redesign of the Innerviews website.

If you notice the intervals between site updates are longer than usual, it's because Anil is foregoing sleep and food trying to hit the book completion deadline on time.

Upcoming features by Anil in Guitar Player magazine include David "Fuze" Fiuczynski of the Screaming Headless Torsos and KiF. The celebrated, innovative guitarist discusses his new disc KiF Express and his unique microtonal approaches. Also look for a piece on U.K. looping guitarist Michael Bearpark, best known for his work with Tim Bowness and No-Man.

A major feature on bassist Kai Eckhardt is also forthcoming in Bass Player. The virtuoso talks about his new CD with his world fusion act Garaj Mahal, as well as his amazing career playing with the likes of John McLaughlin, Billy Cobham and Larry Coryell.
