"I make the kind of music that I do because it helps me," says Sarah Davachi. Throughout her prolific discography, the experimental composer has used extended tones and sounds associated with sacred spaces to slow down the frenzied pace of everyday life. Davachi's latest album Cantus, Descant augments recordings made on pipe organs with the haunting sound of her own vocals. In this conversation, we talk about our shared hometown of Calgary, overlooked elements of classic rock, the tour dates she was supposed to go on with Thom Yorke, and much more.
