You can find Judith Lindbergh at https://judithlindbergh.com/ and on IG @judithlindbergh. This week's episode is one that big history nerds may find fascinating. In fact, big nerd Carrie could have gone even further down a rabbit hole of Herodotus than she did with our guest Judith Lindbergh. If you feel like playing a drinking game with this episode, between the three of us, we say the word ‘fascinating” at least nine times. Judith's second novel, titled Akmaral, will be published on May 7 and is a sweeping story of a nomadic woman warrior in Central Asia during the 5th century. Judith tells us about her inspiration for the novel (and you can find more about the Ice Maiden she mentions in our interview on her website) and how the matriarchal community in which Akmaral lives has connections to the mythological Amazons. Judith relates the challenges of women during the Iron Age to those that modern women have through her story. A perfect saga story for fans of Madeline Miller.

I speak on how I became a musician and session vocalist, How I Learned guitar with Evan Carlisle, son of Bob Carlisle. (Bob Carlisle was the co-writer of “Butterfly Kisses” with my father Randy Thomas in the 90’s.) I speak on playing in a band with Josh and Zach Farro who ended up forming Paramore. I also touch on learning how to sing rock and choir simultaneously while growing up. Developing high end vocals and different vocal techniques I also talk about my party trick of Tuvan Throat Singing and how I love to learn all different styles of singing. I talk a little about the art of session singing. Working with awesome producers and engineers. Then I play some clips showcasing my vocal reel to get a feel for my vocal diversity. I show off my Tuvan Throat singing technique and then play a song written with Josh Farro called Over Overwhelmed. I also showcase a song from my old band Mesas - "On A Cloud" which I always loved. “It’s a long track, crossing Jordan, over land and the sea. Don’t delay me, don’t repay me, I’m a champion of the meek. Downed in hell and crowned in wealth cant save yourself from me. Just.a moment, just a wink, theres no one quite like a thief.” - On A Cloud More music to come with Grady Walker who will be the interviewee for next week’s episode. whataworldpodcast.com Randallthomasmusic.com Randall Thomas randallthomasmusic@gmail.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/whataworldpodcast/support
Thom sits down with Soriah, a Tuvan Throat Singer who has played with an incredibly diverse group of folks, including Rob Wynia of Floater and David J from Bauhaus. The name “Soriah” is a spirit suit worn for performance: A state of trance and gnosis that he gets into during his performances. We both agreed that the feeling from performing music had the potential to become “spiritual” in the sense that there are few words that can describe the feeling it brings. We learn that his father was part of Los Sputniks, a mexican rock band that was popular in Mexico City during the mid-60’s, so music always played a part in Soriah’s life. We also learn how Jets and Airplane noises played a part as well. Soriah was exposed to Tuvan Throat Singing from a mix CD given to him by a friend. He then developed this passion the ended up with him meeting and learning from Tuvan throat singer and eventually a trip to Tuva was in order. Soriah also created a record with Daniel Riddle at Mazinga Studios. Soriah tells us about what Tuva is like and some interesting history and stories of the Tuvan folks. Enjoy this really great interview with a passionate and talented musician.
