Hey! Who are we chatting with from The Lulu Raes and what’s your role in the band?
I’m Marcus. I play bass guitar and I don’t have a driver’s license.
You’ve been smashing the touring circuit lately, playing with Holy Holy and gracing stages at BIGSOUND and Small Worlds Festival. How does your live show compare to your recorded music?
The live shows are fun, we don’t play any slow songs so it’s party party all night. We played in Brisbane recently and Eddie fell off the stage halfway through the second song. The band kept playing and he got back up and finished the song like a bloody Aussie legend.
If you latest single, Burnout was a movie, what would the synopsis be?
Four handsome young men walking around the city and finding bikes. They get dumplings and ride dodgem cars but that doesn’t make the final edit. Band makes millions of dollars. Credits.
Why should we head along to your gig at The Workers Club on Thursday November 5?
It will be a fun party. Our mates Neon Queen are on support and they’re fucking hectic as well. I just read the ticket website and “dangerous behaviour including crowd surfing, noshing and violent dancing is not allowed and will result in your immediate removal from this venue,” so you know that you will be safe and the trouble makers will be ejected.
THE LULU RAES play The Workers Club on Thursday November 5.
