NIGHTWISH - Troy Donockley interview @Linea Rock 2018 by Barbara Caserta

TROY DONOCKLEY is the multi-instrumentalist in Finnish symphonic metal masters NIGHTWISH since 2007. He plays bodhràn, uilleann pipes, tin whistle, bouzouki and guitar! How does it feel to be the ace in their deck, their secret weapon? Backstage at Mediolanum Forum in Milano on December 4th 2018, for Linea Rock, our BARBARA CASERTA had the chance to nicely discuss with Troy his approach to music since the very first instrument he ever played, how his collaboration with Nightwish started in a crucial period of the finnish band’s career and how it became more trenchant in 11 years, during composition and soundwise, especially with mastermind Tuomas…. And was it Troy to change the band or actually the band changed his life forever? And as a multi-instrumentalist is music a much richer language for him someway, like a multidimensional coloured canvas? And how much freedom he has to choose which colour to add to the final opera? How did he live the change between Anette and Floor on vocals? And what if he was able to work with Tarja? The best record so far he has done with Nightwish in his own taste? He also describes the typical day on the road, how the band decides the show’s setlist and usually work on it… and is the tour the most relaxing part of “the job” or otherwise the studio sessions? He also reveals some future plans (also for side project AURI) and the new Nightwish live album in the can… and did Troy have yet the chance to watch Queen’s movie “Bohemian Rhapsody” which on everybody’s lips right now?
