Define your genre in five words or less:
Alternative folk.
So, someone is walking past as you guys are playing, they then go get a beer and tell their friend about you… what do they say?
“That sax player sounds like an angel.”
How long have you been gigging and writing?
I’ve been writing for around 11 years and gigging for 6 years.
What has been your favourite gig you’ve played to date?
A few years ago my bass player James Gilligan and I played a house concert in Bern, Switzerland. It was held in this incredible old apartment overlooking the Zytglogge (a beautiful medieval clock tower) and the Old Town to an audience of around 20. There was something a bit magic about that one.
Which band would you most like to have a battle/showdown with?
Barbarian. We would definitely lose but there would be pyrotechnics involved so…
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
It sort of depends on how you measure success I suppose. All of the bands that I love have stuck to their guns from day one and never bent their musical morals to cater to the masses. To me that’s success, but it doesn’t necessarily pay the bills.
Do you have any record releases to date? What? Where can I get it?
I have just released the first single from my forthcoming debut album. Its called This Thing and you can get it on Bandcamp or iTunes (or for free on triple j Unearthed).
HANNAH CAMERON’s new single This Thing is out now.
