Gaga Will Be Singing Live In ‘A Star Is Born’!
Following films like ‘Les Misérables‘ and ‘La La Land‘, sound mixer Steve Morrow has said Lady Gaga will be singing live in ‘A Star Is Born‘. In an interview with “Next Big Picture“, Morrow said the pop singer has been pushing the sound team for a unique and challenging method of audio mixing.
Steve Morrow had this to say about the singer’s passion for this project:
“You sit there and you think, ‘Lady Gaga wants all the vocals live. She wants to perform live every single time you see her sing.’ She’s going to be live.”
“She said, ‘Okay, look, here’s what I want: I want all the music to be live as well. I don’t want it to feel like I’m singing to a playback track because it doesn’t feel right to me. I can always tell; it always affects the performance. I want to sing live, I want the band to be live,’”
This film will be Bradley Cooper’s directorial debut and he will also co-star alongside Gaga. The story follows a young singer (Gaga) whose career is given a jump-start with help from an aging, alcoholic movie star (Cooper). ‘A Star Is Born‘ has been remade quite a few times with actress like Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand. Filming begins around April but the award buzz is already pouring in.
