Stereo Embers The Podcast 0457: Tamar Berk Alex Green Online
“OCD”
The Ohio-bornTamar Berk first showed up on my radar in the mid-90s when she sang for the iChicago outfit Starball. Starball were a really great band and they worked with everyone from Material Issue to Steve Albini and their Holstein Park record remains one of my favorite records of the ’90s. Tamar’s solo output now numbers five fabulous albums like The Restless Dreams Of Youth, Good Times For A Change her new one, OCD,. Weaned on everyone from Liz Phair to the Small Faces, Berk’s new album is scruffy blast of melodic indie rock that’s doused in reverb put together with vulnerability and honest and coated with some of the most unforgettable choruses you’ll hear all year. Now based in San Diego, Berk is on a creative tear, which actuall ties into her new album’s title. The compulsive need to create–and this is something I think most artists understand–can bring on a version of OCD that can inform the work, sure, but it can also be a nagging voice that relies on patterns to be silenced. We talk about all of that, and so much more; she’s real and honest and funny and sharp and you’re going to love her.
