“[My greatest moment of inspiration is] actually the footage of Nina Simone performing live at Montreux in 1976 — when I watch that, it’s like I never want to sit down again. I never want to do anything that doesn’t involve hunger and ache. You feel like you never want to be complacent or smug or entitled, and you want to ask and demand — not only of yourself but of the audience — to try harder, to feel more, to be bolder, to participate.”

It’s a common misconception with fans of her old trio Sleater-Kinney, says Corin Tucker, that just because they aren’t currently recording together, she and co-founder Carrie Brownstein are at odds. “I think people make assumptions about Sleater-Kinney or our friendship that aren’t really based in reality – the band is just on hiatus, and we use that word in the way it’s meant, you know?” says the Portland native, who just issued her second solo album, “Kill My Blues,” as The Corin Tucker Band. Although Brownstein is equally busy with her group Wild Flag and her sketch comedy show “Portlandia,” there’s been talk of a possible Sleater-Kinney reunion in 2013 – if everyone’s crazy schedules align.
