What’s the band name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?

I’m Kieran, I write the music, sing and play guitar, and also control the band’s currently thriving herb garden.

 

How would you describe your sound?

People love to say we sound like Local Natives, Radiohead and Grizzly Bear, which is flattering.

 

What do you loveabout making music?

Twisting the arms of pop structures and conventions until they submit and work with how I create music.

If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be?

Claude Debussy. I think our music, or any music from today would completely perturb him, it’d be so foreign that I’d get a rush just watching him react to it sonically.

 

If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it?

Popular music has its place and is well loved by a lot of people, however, if

something like death were to come knocking on Iggy Azalea’s door I wouldn’t mind.

 

What can a punter expect from your live show?

Good honest live indie/alternative pop. We’re in the midst of reshaping the live show and the EP launch will be the first step towards that.

 

What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?

Our recently released debut EP Sleeping Through Tempests.

 

Any parting words?

I’m better at guitar than Brayden.
