Heidi Heist

What is your name and what do you do in Heist?

I play guitar and sing. I also bought a banjo a few weeks ago and I'm getting pretty good, I think.

How long have you played your instrument and how did you get started?

I've played guitar for 8 years, maybe... since highschool. I thought it would make me cooler. Mission accomplished? Then I picked up a banjo in August so I could be just like Don Chambers.

What other musical projects have you been involved with?

None really. I was in a blues band when I was 17... but we were not very good.

What are some of your biggest inspirations musically?

Don Chambers, obviously. I secretly want to be Neil Young. Then there's Brian Molko of Placebo...

How did you get involved with Heist?

I needed an outlet to express all of the evil thoughts that were in my head... all the pain and anger, the hate... just kidding. I don't know, I made up some songs and taught them to other people. People like Paul.

Anything else you want to mention?

No
