60 Second With… Contrast

contrast2.jpg

What’s your name? And the name of the band?

My name is Jack and my band is Contrast.

What do you do?

I do heaps of shit in general, but in the band I have a crack at guitar and sing pretty debatably 

When did you start doing that?

Just before I hit puberty when I could actually sing

Why do you do that?

Well I’m not a good singer but anyone too good at singing in a professional sense sucks anyways. I stopped playing guitar for about six years for skateboarding too, so when I realised I really sucked I bought a shitload of pedals to make me sound way better than I am in the hope I could trick everyone into thinking I’m good. 

What would you be doing if you weren’t doing that?

I do heaps of shit besides doing this. I’m not stupid enough to quit doing my day job to just do this yet. 

What annoys you about doing what you do?

When weak venues barely give you any drinks.

What’s your favourite thing about doing what you do?

Somehow being able to play with all my favourite bands in town that I always thought we’d never play with. 

CONTRAST are playing this Thursday August 6 at The Workers Club with Zig Zag, Divide and Dissolve and Summer Blokes. Doors 7pm, entry is $10.
