NSTS Episode 113 – Singer Songwriter Heather Nova

Bermudian songstress Heather Nova is my guest this week on NSTS. She grew up on a sailboat in the Caribbean, and her songs appear on the soundtracks of The Crow and I Am Sam, and on shows like Dawson’s Creek. Her new record, called Pearl, drops on June 28.

Heather’s list is full of skin-vibrating tunes, and we chat about Kris Kristofferson’s advice to Joni Mitchell, Heather’s reggae musician brother Mishka, seeing Patti Smith live, Neil Young’s guitar solos, and our introductions to Kate Bush. Next time she’s bringing her guitar.  

Nova’s playlist:

Jeff Buckley – Lover, You Should Come Over

Neil Young – Like A Hurricane

Patti Smith – Dancing Barefoot

Kate Bush – Running Up That Hill

Joni Mitchell – All I Want

Radiohead – Fake Plastic Trees

Mishka – Above The Bones
