Daniel Lanois
In late 2008, producer Daniel Lanois contacted Trixie and invited her to the Berklee College of Music, where he was in residence. Their collaboration on Trixie's song "I'd Rather Go Blind" – with drummer Brian Blade – was filmed and provoked a buzz in music circles. Soon, with the addition of bassist Daryl Johnson, a supergroup – Daniel Lanois' Black Dub – was born.
