New music feature: Joker’s Daughter

Joker’s Daughter feature on venuszine.com

Joker’s Daughter is singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Helena Costas, who teamed with Danger Mouse as her producer for her debut album The Last Laugh for Conor Oberst’s Team Love label. I think the story turned out fine but this interview was a technological nightmare! Because Helena lives in London, it was supposed to be on Skype, then Skype kept cutting out and/or not connecting, so we decided to do the interview via instant message … but then the Internet in my house went out so I had to run to the coffee shop to finish it.
