Lindi Ortega Finds Inspiration From Singing Backup for Brandon Flowers
Lindi Ortega might call her music alt-country, but it's more mourn-country: fabulously dark, playful and cool. The Toronto singer-guitarist first reaped accolades from the four-song 'Drifter EP,' released on iTunes in 2008 and widespread in 2009 on Interscope/Cherrytree. But a song could've been written about what happened next -- delays, delays before being dropped from her label. No matter. She's since signed with Last Gang, the label responsible for helping to launch Metric , and just released a new album, 'Little Red Boots,' earlier this month. Spinner spoke with Ortega about weathering the storm, singing back-up for Brandon Flowers of the Killers , and hunting for her cowboy. Yes, it was.

It was great. It definitely is a cool perspective. I'm used to being the one that's upfront on stage, playing my guitar and singing my songs. So to take a backseat and witness it all on that level was highly inspiring and a very big learning experience, just to see how he functions and how he conducts himself and how he conducts his band. He put his band together right before going out on tour and that is something that I was going to have to do and eventually ended up doing..." Yeah, absolutely. It gave me an even greater love for travel and touring. Being able to go to all those different countries and places and playing all those amazing venues and doing Jimmy Kimmel and Jay Leno and all that sort of stuff gave me the bug to want to get out there with my own music and see if I could do it and reach people in those parts of the world as well. It was definitely disappointing because I expected this record to come out at a certain time and I saw a few release dates come and go without a release actually happening. Finally, when it was apparent that it wasn't gonna happen, I was worried about what I was gonna do next, but it ended up being for the best ...Drifters Gang 23rd St - News
