 Here and Now :: Deborah Conway and Willy Zygier :: OzTrax
Deborah Conway exploded onto the Australian music scene in 1985 with the group Do Re Mi and the single "Man Overboard".
Deborah's partner Willy Zygier has been working with her since the early 1990s and together they have co-written and co-produced most of Deborah's material since then.
It severely cramped her guitar playing and Deborah suggests that in the end that was perhaps a bonus for it forced the band to comply with a blueprint to simplify.

 Mildura Wentworth Arts Festival
Deborah describes it as her “most mature record to date”, but that is an ironic twist for an album that was recorded in secret in her parents house while they were away.
Deborah said this record was geared toward evoking the spirit of the pre-electronic era and trying to capture the magic of song masters such as Simon and Garfunkel, The Mammas and Pappas, James Taylor and Carole King.
It’s evidence of Conway’s musical evolution, but still showcases the Conway-esque music Australia fell in love with when she burst on to the music scene in the 1980s with the hit “Man Overboard”.

 Deborah Conway: It's a girl thing
Conway’s feisty attitude is something found throughout 1991's String of Pearls and 1994's Bitch Epic, her first two solo albums of adventurous and dynamic pop.
It derives its diversity from a mix of hypnotic rhythms, ambient synthwork and processed guitars—most of which are courtesy of Willy Zygier, her partner in crime and d'amour.
The same can be said for her lyrics which explore scars of pleasure and pain, the slippery-slope of self-realization and the blurry line between the sensual and the sexual.

 Broad - Gig Reviews - Music - Entertainment - smh.com.au
Conway's recollection is hazier, most likely because she has had similar conversations many many times over the past 15 years.
Conway, however, has been recording independently since 2000, and so the pros and cons of independent versus major are more apparent for her than they might be for Hooper.
For Conway, taking control has involved releasing her music independently, and coming up with creative ideas to sidestep 21st-century industry perils such as CD burning and illegal downloads.
