Paula Lombardo (Venamoris)

SPB: It sounds like you were hesitant to return to music performance. What about the response to Venamoris has surprised you most?

Lombardo: Yes, I was hesitant. And now I’m left with the realization that my hesitancy was built on lies we tell ourselves.

There have been many surprises on this journey. But at this moment, I’m most surprised by the reception from Dave’s fanbase. Not only the fact that they have taken the time to hear, but they’ve listened. That, and the fact that I had so many fears holding me back, and not one has happened! So far, it’s been a surprisingly beautiful ride.
