Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Edith Piaf meets The Andrews Sisters meets Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis…or something like that.
What do you love about making music?
The joy of music is something otherworldly, like a meditation where you are able to communicate beyond words and reach some kind of transcendence. To then share that joy with an audience is really a wonderful feeling. This particular journey is romantic, beautiful, silly, sexy, and a lot of fun! Singing harmonies has got to be one of our favourite things to do, so Abby and I both get a lot of pleasure from singing together in this band.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
A couple of broads being French imposters, singing gorgeous songs in divine harmony with an awesome, kickass band.
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?
‘Oh my god, there are two hot babes on stage singing in another language. I’ve got no idea what they are saying, but my GOD they sound great and suddenly I want to dance and make love!’
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
I think you have to do it because you love it and be able to do everything! Artwork, website, social media, PR, tour booking, travel bookings, hair and makeup…and then, well, ya gotta know how to make some nice music in there somewhere, which seems to speak to people and gets a good response, otherwise it can be a lonely journey.
Do you have any record releases to date? What are they? Where can I get them?
We have a beautiful self-titled album we put out last year. We feel we are still getting it to the people, but in this last year we’ve played at Port Fairy Festival, Adelaide Cabaret Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Melbourne Fringe and a string of sold out shows along the coast of NSW and VIC. We are thrilled to be playing Queenscliff this year as well as The Substation in Newport on Friday November 22! Yes that was a spruik, but that’s to say you should buy our album and come and see us! What you see onstage is what you get on disc. In stores now through MGM or at babyetlulu.com.au
