Around the World with Celia Woodsmith"},"content":{"rendered":"

\u200b\u200bI was first introduced to Della Mae in a church.  \u200bNot what you would expect, right?  They were just back from an overseas trip that they did for the State Department where they travel to other countries and teach\u200b people about the music and instruments that they play.  It was amazing and I was instantly a fan.  A few months later, I saw them open for The Infamous Stringdusters at 9:30 Club and have gotten to see them several times since.  It was a real pleasure to be able to learn about the band and their adventures from lead vocalist and guitarist Celia Woodsmith. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Karin McLaughlin: (after explaining the above to her)  I want to talk about that and what your experiences were with that program – what you guys learned from doing \u200bit and what you hold dear from it, maybe.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Zoe<\/span>\"Zoe<\/span><\/p>\n

Celia Woodsmith<\/strong>: Yeah, so I think at this point it’s \u200b18 different countries that we’ve been to with the State Department. \u200b It’s either through this program called American Music Abroad<\/strong> or it’s straight through  working with an embassy – a lot of embassies will bring us there if they want to surreptitiously work on things like women’s rights.   Just by having us there and by having us be present and playing music, we don’t need to say a thing, we can just show who we are and what we think and how we act. \u200bThat in itself is sort of a testament to women’s rights. \u200b  Especially in some of these places that we’ve gone like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Jordan.  There’s a lot of places that we’ve been that I feel\u200b we can lend a hand in that department. \u200b<\/p>\n

It would take all day to \u200bname or\u200b put words to everything that I feel we’ve learned on these trips, but one of the most important things is how similar we are.  I know that\u200b at this point,\u200b that’s \u200bsomething everyone talks about – we’re all one – but truly, \u200bwhen you \u200bget down to it, you really get to know people in small, little classes, where you get together with little kids or you get together with women from a cooperative or with high school students.  Everyone is so nice and so curious.  They just want to be with you and in turn, you really just want to be with them and \u200b\u200btaste the tea that they’re giving you or you teach them a song, they teach you a song.<\/p>\n

“\u200bI go to the women’s rights marches, however controversial that may be for some people. I stand up for my fellow women, \u200bno matter what color they are, no matter what creed, what religion.”<\/p>\n

I really do believe that we’re so afraid of one another for \u200bno good reason. We’re sort of stuck in this scary media thing. It’s a cyclical thing.\u200b We get scary knowledge from the media, so we don’t travel and then because we don’t travel, we’re scared of people.  Then we get more scary knowledge and we’re reaffirmed in our desire not to travel.\u200b  It’s a sad thing.<\/p>\n

When we first went to Pakistan, we had family members, we had fans, we had people telling us, ‘Do not go!’ \u200b  That was one of the most beautiful, amazing places I’ve ever been just in terms of \u200bculture and \u200bfeeling different and being accepted, it is totally mind blowing. \u200b<\/p>\n

KM:  Do you also find any difference in how you guys are \u200bviewed or judged here and now in America,\u200b with the whole ‘me too’ movement being that you’re an all female band? \u200b If so, do you find that there’s any either good or bad to that or is it the opposite and you \u200bguys really feel empowered because of the movement and \u200bbeing an all female group? \u200b It’s seen by so many as a setback, \u200bbut then you have the angle of being able to prove everyone wrong about whatever they might already think in a negative way?<\/strong><\/p>\n

CW: <\/strong>Yeah, \u200bI think for as long as we’ve been a band, we’ve been proving people wrong.  \u200b I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard – and I love that people even think it’s cool to say this to you – but\u200b were like, ‘Wow, you guys are a lot better than I expected.’ Like, really<\/em>? \u200b<\/p>\n

KM:  You know you gotta love those back handed comments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Celia<\/span>\"Celia<\/span><\/p>\n

CW:<\/strong> Yeah, like, ‘Why<\/em> are we a lot better than you expected?’  ‘If you went to see a band of all men, would you have said that to any of them?’  No, you wouldn’t have.  So for a long time we really\u200b in a way, kept quiet and just showed how powerful we were and are<\/em> because of the way that we play and that we can keep up with any man.  <\/p>\n

I have to say now that this ‘me too’ thing, I think it has emboldened us to really speak up about things, particularly in \u200brespect to women’s rights. I don’t feel afraid anymore to speak up and to say that I am a feminist, that I am a supporter of women’s rights.  I go to the women’s rights marches, however controversial that may be for some people. I stand up for my fellow women, \u200bno matter what color they are, no matter what creed, what religion. \u200b I really do think that D\u200bella Mae has a place standing up for that in the future and no longer \u200bbeing afraid that we’re going to lose fans over it.   Maybe it was something that we thought a little bit more when we were younger, when you’re a little bit more afraid of what people have to say about you.  Now after going all around the world \u200band meeting all sorts of people and growing up a little bit, we’re not afraid of that anymore. \u200b I don’t think we’re going to be at the front lines of\u200b whatever movement, but we are going to be more outspoken, whether it’s through songs or through\u200b organizations that we outwardly support.  \u200b<\/p>\n

KM: We’re jumping around here, but I’m going to go back to the beginning\u200b, where did the name Della Mae may come from? <\/strong><\/p>\n

CW: <\/strong>The name \u200bDella Mae comes from an \u200bOsbourne Brothers<\/strong> songs called “Big Spike Hammer” and the chorus goes, “Hey, Hey, \u200bDella Mae why do you treat me this way?”  \u200bI wasn’t there at the beginning, but Kimberly thought that they might name the band Big Spike Hammer as a sort of tongue in cheek, look at how masculine we are playing a million miles an hour and we’re going to stand on stage and not smile and that was a joke. \u200b \u200bThen, later on, it became,  ‘Why don’t we own the fact that we’re not trying to be men, we’re just trying to be badass women?’  So the band name became \u200bDella Mae\u200b<\/p>\n

KM: \u200b You guys were named IBM’s Emerging Artists in 2013, and then turned around \u200bthe very next year with your second album where you get a Grammy nomination! <\/strong><\/p>\n

CW:<\/strong> Yeah, that was \u200bvery unexpected! \u200b\u200b I knew nothing about the Grammy process at that point and I had no idea that we had even been \u200bput in the pool for a Grammy nomination.   We found out after a show in Johnson City, Tennessee.  I just remember that moment being very surreal, because someone looked at their phone, at their email and said, ‘Guys, Jim (our manager at the time) just said, ‘Congratulations on the Grammy nomination!’  And we were like, ‘Jim that’s so mean, that’s a mean joke!’  But then we were \u200ball like, ‘Wait, didn’t the Grammy nominations just come out?’  So we googled it, you know ‘Della Mae Grammy nomination’. (laughs).  And we did! \u200b<\/p>\n

KM: (laughs) That’s a pretty great story!  You know you’ve made it when you have to Google yourself, right? <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u200bKM: You guys also just came out with a new EP \u200bThe Butcher Shoppe <\/em>on March 1.  You’ve got \u200btwo songs on there that are covers – \u200b”Sixteen Tons” and “Whipping Post” – I just want to say that we came to \u200bFesty \u200band I had been hyping the band, telling everyone how good you were, and then you guys played \u200bthat song \u200band both the guys that were with me were like, “Holy shit, those girls \u200bkill it!”  \u200bYou also covered “No Scrubs” and another 90’s rap type song and the entire venue was just \u200bwowed.  There were some people\u200b there that didn’t know you and some that did but\u200b let me tell you, everyone left there a Della Mae fan.  \u200bSpecifically that song being that it’s on your album and I’ve seen what you’ve done with it live – is there something about “Whipping Post” that you guys have a draw to?  Or is it just a fun song to play?  I know, it gets covered a lot and it’s a very energetic, throwing everything in the ring type of song, but is there anything that ties it specifically to you guys, and \u200bmaybe why you decided to put it on this EP that just came out?  <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Della<\/span>\"Della<\/span><\/p>\n

CW:  \u200bYou know, I think the reason that we did it was, and it has been covered a lot, but I’m not sure how many times it’s been covered by an all female bluegrass band. \u200b For me, doing such a traditionally sort of testosterone-driven, masculine song and doing it in a way that we want to do it, you know, not, you know, that there.<\/p>\n

We’re not trying to do like a 20 minute jam, you know, like, I think we’re really just trying to own that song and surprise people by the song choices, like “No Scrubs”. \u200b  We’ve covered Led Zeppelin and Foreigner\u200b a lot of \u200bclassic rock stuff. \u200b  With “Whipping Post” I’m really drawn towards it because I think it lets me \u200boff the leash a little bit, which is really fun for me but I mean, I obviously \u200bcannot take credit for how badass that song comes across, but I think that’s probably why we do it – to surprise people a little bit. \u200b<\/p>\n

\u200bKM: Another \u200bsuper badass thing that you do and I’ve seen a lot more of lately, especially with Bonnie Paine\u200b joining up with other bands onstage, is the electric washboard. Holy \u200bmoly!  I mean, that is one of the coolest things I’ve seen!   \u200bI met a guy at a festival last year, it was a really small festival, but \u200bthere were lots of fireside jams. \u200b He had a doorbell that he had ripped out of a wall, a washboard, pots and pans and all this stuff. \u200b We became Facebook friends\u200b and I videotaped \u200b you playing the electric washboard and sent it to him and his mind was blown. \u200b Since then he has electrified his washboard and he loves it.  I feel like there’s something unique and special, obviously, because it’s a washboard but the \u200belectric washboard just levels it up AND you get to wear those gloves. What’s it like being able to get up there and do something that’s considered so old timey, but then you bring it into this new realm and you hook it up and \u200bbring it back and you play the hell out of it? <\/strong><\/p>\n

CW: <\/strong>Yeah, so I’ve played the washboard for a long, long time actually.  I used to play in a band in Boston that we called Washboard Rock n Roll and it was really, really fun.  Then when I saw that Bonnie Paine for the first time – I got to give her basically most of the credit here – she was the one who who put the underside of the snare drum on the side of it, that little metal dangly thing.   She did that and it gives the \u200bwashboard this whole other element of, usually these words aren’t used together, but subtlety.  You can \u200bsort of tap on it and it’s not quite so jarring.   So I found that\u200b it just goes a little bit better with more songs when you don’t have to be a Zydeco Queen for the whole time.  Y\u200bou can sort of tap on it like you would tap on a snare and that gives me a lot more flexibility.   <\/p>\n

What I love about the washboard is it’s so physical.  I love being not tethered to a microphone and that I can sort of move in the way that I want to move.  You can give it that physicality that I think is one of the things that draws people towards \u200byou while you’re doing it, because in reality, the washboard is very loud and annoying, but when you see someone playing it, \u200bit’s sort of mesmerizing, it’s this ownership of a rhythm.  So I love being able to plug it in and being able to move around and the guy who did mine is the same guy that fixes my guitars when they have problems.  I just asked him if he thought he be able to put a pickup in a washboard snd he said, “Well, I’ve never done it, but I am also interested to try, so if you trust me to, give it to me and I’ll figure it out!”  I think he did a really, really good job with it, so \u200byeah, it’s awesome!<\/p>\n

KM: \u200b You guys have had quite a busy year so far and have \u200beven more still coming up.  Reflecting back on 2018 as a whole, \u200bwas there anything \u200bfrom 2018 that you guys really found that \u200byou’re still talking about it? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Della Mae performs at The Festy Experience<\/p>\n

CW: <\/strong>Well, we feel that way about Festy whenever we go and \u200bit’s a crowd of\u200b young people.  That is not something you see at every bluegrass festival.  I wouldn’t call \u200bFesty necessarily a bluegrass festival at all you know, it’s like jam grass slash Americana and \u200bblues like \u200bRubblebucket<\/strong> played, so it’s a wider reach.  \u200b<\/p>\n

KM: Rubblebucket!  \u200bThat’s a good example of one of those festival finds that I didn’t know about before, but I am now in love with what a great band! <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u200bCW:<\/strong>  They’re great. Yeah, I actually went to University of Vermont with\u200b Annakalmia (lead singer), back in the day. \u200b But yea, I love Festy because when you look out at the audience, it’s just mostly young people and I see that next generation of people who are going to be really into coming out to see live music.  There’s also another one called Fresh Grass<\/strong> in Massachusetts, which is awesome and just really great. We’ve been having a lot of fun playing with Allison Brown<\/strong> on the banjo, she is just a total rock star!  She’s cool because she quietly can sort of, own the stage and just melt your face (laughs).  You\u200b might not expect \u200bit, but then she gets on stage and you’re just like, ‘Holy shit!’\u200b  Not only is she a fantastic banjo player, but she can play a lot of other instruments, she’s a producer and she can be an engineer\u200b, she’s just got it all. So\u200b that’s been fun.<\/p>\n

KM: \u200bNow we’ve talked about the past, let’s talk about the future.  \u200bYou’ve got dates scheduled all the way through like October already.\u200b  Is there anything you guys are especially looking forward to this summer that maybe you haven’t gotten to do in the past? Or you are looking forward to again to return to? <\/strong><\/p>\n

CW: <\/strong>Well, I have to say we’ve been doing a couple of shows with Steve Martin<\/strong> and Martin Short<\/strong> and that has been really fun.  It’s a different sort of thing, but man oh man, it’s been cool to sort of lend our music to their show. They’re incredibly funny and really gracious guys.  We’re going to be doing that probably another\u200b12 shows with them.\u200b<\/p>\n

We’re going to Europe and we’re going to be doing a couple of festivals in Europe, which is exciting. \u200b I think the most exciting for me right now is we’re going to be tracking another album coming up here in the next month and a half to two months down in Nashville.  I am so excited about the songs.  I think we’re just going to crack it open and let it all out even more. \u200b  You’re just going to see more stuff, not “Whipping Post” itself, but more stuff along \u200bthose lines, where we really just \u200bget to have a big, big sound and lots of harmonies and lots of meaningful songs. So the future is definitely with another album and\u200b I’m really excited to record it. \u200b<\/p>\n

KM: Celia, I want to thank you so much for taking the time. We’re looking really forward to you guys coming back <\/strong>here at The Hamilton. \u200b<\/strong><\/p>\n

CW:<\/strong> Thanks so much!<\/p>\n
