starting to spring up and I know some musicians are starting to get diaries that are filling up, but

    it’s very, very bitty.

    SW:  Yeah, it’s going to be a little bit tricky. I have been invited to go down to the US in the summer

    for a festival, but right now, we can’t go across the border yet. I’m going to guess maybe in the fall
    I’ll be able to, but I don’t let that stop me, Ian. There’s so many challenges in life and I do not let

    that stop me. I don’t see touring as selling an album. I see making an album in itself is a good thing
    because the songs are important for people to hear and I don’t see that I have to tour because I can

    only do what I can do, and all artists, that’s what we’re all doing right now. We’re just trying to do
    what we can.


    BiTS:  You’ve clearly got a full-time job, Sunday. What is it you do?

    SW:  I do outreach for a disability organisation.


    BiTS:  Good for you. That’s a wonderful thing to do.

    SW:  Yes, I love my job. I love my job. Then I focus         Sunday Wilde

    on my creative stuff. I’m a writer and I’m a poet as
    well. I had some poetry published in a book not

    long ago and things like that.

    BiTS: Wonderful. I didn’t know that. That’s terrific

    stuff.

    SW: Yeah, as a creator and then one of the songs on

    the new album is going on a commercial for a
    restaurant here, so I focus on those types of things.

    I focus on getting the recorded music to places that
    it gets heard because I can’t necessarily go. It’s a

    tricky business to be in where I live and I’ve always
    had that challenge, no matter what the situation?


    BiTS:  You clearly do all of the marketing yourself.
    Do you have anybody that helps you?


    SW: Yes, I do. I have a big radio promotion helping me right now. My friend Leen in the
    Netherlands. I’m not sure if you know him, but he’s been in assistance with me as a friend and

    helper for a couple of years now and I got to meet him in Memphis this past year because I went
    down to Memphis last year for shows and things, but it’s just me, mostly [chuckles].


    BiTS:  I won’t take any more of your time, Sunday. Thank you very much indeed for talking to me
    and good luck with the album.


    SW:  Thank you. Thank you so much. Bye.

    BiTS:  Bye.
