What’s your name then? Oh. And the name of your band.
Oh, hi there. We’re Sally and Erica, aka Coda Conduct.
And what do you do?
Among other things, we make a mean stir-fry, knit beanies, and rap, but we mostly we rap.
When did you start doing that?
We first stepped on stage a little over two years ago, but our first release came out about three weeks ago.
Why did you start doing that?
We’ve both been really into hip hop for years, but it wasn’t until we met while travelling through India that it occurred to us we could rap if we tried.
What makes you happiest about what you’re doing?
Performing live. You can’t keep the grins off our faces – we look like total goofs, but being on stage is the best feeling.
And what makes you unhappiest about what you’re doing?
When the only thing our friends ask about nowadays is our music. We still make stir-fries and knit beanies, you know.
What’s you proudest moment of doing what you do?
Sometimes, girls and women come up after a gig and say that this is the first time they’ve realised they can be a participant in hip hop, not just a listener. That’s awesome.
And your least proud?
Sometimes we forget to call our mums because we’ve been really busy. Sorry, Mum.
CODA CONDUCT will be launching Butter Side Up at Laundry on Saturday April 4.
