Innerviews, music without borders
Sheila Chandra

Sheila Chandra

transformed the human voice into an instrument without limits, capable of generating complex rhythms, sustaining intricate musical landscapes, and reaching beyond language itself. From Monsoon’s 1982 hit “Ever So Lonely” to her landmark Real World trilogy, Chandra continually expanded vocal expression before Burning Mouth Syndrome forced her to stop singing in 2010. Although her performances came to an end, the music continued to resonate. Echo, a collection of live recordings spanning her career, offers a new lens on that body of work. In this wide-ranging conversation, Chandra reflects on the alchemy of live performance, the complexities of revisiting her musical past, and the many forms a creative life can take when its defining instrument falls silent.
