  • Rainy Eyes - Healing Harmonies
    Sep 20 2024
    We are so excited to have Irena Eide aka Rainy Eyes with us on No Simple Road this week as our guest! Being a female musician in a male-dominated industry comes with its own set of challenges and nuances. Irena opens up about her experiences in the music business, sharing insights on maintaining a strong, assertive attitude and the importance of mutual respect in an industry often marred by superficial judgments. Her latest album, a collaborative effort featuring notable musicians like Rick Robertson and Sam Grisman, serves as a testament to her artistic integrity and emotional storytelling. We explore the transformative power of music as both a creative outlet and a healing tool. Irena recounts the organic process of recording her album in a serene cabin setting, the support from her parents that fueled her musical passion, and the cathartic nature of bringing long-developed songs to fruition. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of music's ability to connect, inspire, and heal, offering listeners a glimpse into the intimate and powerful world of a dedicated artist.
