Can I interview you? Short interview. ? http://thebandinsanity.com/the-band-insanity/musicians/musicians-can-i-interview-you-short-interview/ http://thebandinsanity.com/the-band-insanity/musicians/musicians-can-i-interview-you-short-interview/#comments Sat, 03 Dec 2011 05:20:43 +0000 admin http://thebandinsanity.com/the-band-insanity/musicians/musicians-can-i-interview-you-short-interview/ So for my World Music class I need to write an exploration paper on a musician I interviewed about their music culture. I was looking for a Hawaiian musician, then I was looking for a Middle Eastern musician. . . I have been trying to find people on forums and what not, but have not been able to find anyone. . . right now I honestly don’t care who I interview, as long as you’re not from North America (except Hawaii. . . . and you can live in North America now, but I need someone who grew up in a different culture). :) So if you’re interested just answer and let me know what culture you grew up in and what type of musician you are. You may remain anonymous. Thanks!Haha, well I do love Taylor Swift, but no that’s not what I’m looking for. :(
