A daring vocal
experimentation, "THIS SENTENCE IS TRUE" re-affirms Sheila
Chandra's place at the cutting-edge of her art.
"I seem to have inadvertently made an album. The process started, innocently enough, when in the summer of 1999, Steve Coe (my long-standing co-writer, producer and cohort) suggested I do a couple of experimental EPs with him in his Ganges Orchestra guise to help me break out of the voice and drone ‘mode’ I had been in throughout the ‘90s. The Ganges Orchestra is a concept – basically a different box of ideas in which we file anything that doesn’t fit in with the main structure of what we are writing at the time or anything too wacky to put on an ‘Oh-so-serious’ Sheila Chandra album. This is a pivotal album. In the past 18 years I’ve evolved from the double tracked compressed pop vocal to this other voice, exploring not just vocal styles from around the world, but also a myriad of other registers. I’ve gone a great way into that territory – voice as an instrument, voice as an effect, voice changing its culture within a single phrase – all that is within my vocal palette when my voice is working well. And now it’s time to play with the setting and soundscapes." - Sheila Chandra
