60 Seconds With… Brittle Sun

Define your genre in five words or less:

Stripped back garage soul.

Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?

Janis Joplin.  

Describe the best gig you have ever played.

It was at the Dancing Dog a few months back. We managed to lure a crowd of people away from the bar to sing along with us. It was great.

Tell us about the last song you wrote.

We wrote it on the kitchen bench amid barking dogs, screaming children, dishes and food preparation. It’s called Just Living and we’ll record it soon.

Where would you like to be in five years?

Making music and not running at a loss.

Do you have a pre-gig ritual? If so, what is it?

Pre-gig ritual is mad rush and near panic. I always do a vocal warm up regardless.

Name an interview question you wish someone would ask you, and answer it.

When did you start singing? Have sung for most of my life, but it took me well over 20 years to learn to do it right. I’m still learning. I didn’t give up. I’m stubborn.

If your music was a chocolate bar, which one would it be, and why?

That’s ridiculous!

BRITTLE SUN play at The Drunken Poet on Wednesday September 17.
