60 Seconds With…Half/Cut

So then, what’s your name and what do you do in the band?

My name is Jessie L. Warren. I sing and dance. 

What do you reckon people will say you sound like?

We get the Cocteau Twins meets American Football a bunch. If I were to describe it, I’d say we’re that gold Jeff Koons sculpture of Michael Jackson and Bubbles, but covered in a layer of dust and soot. 

What do you love about making music?

For a band of people who cannot stop talking, thinking and making ridiculous jokes, I think it’s a great opportunity to keep us all busy for at least the length of one song – I find solace in that space.

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

Most of my heroes are still living, but if I really do have to go back in time I’d really love to be in New York in 1973 hanging out and exchanging jams with Patti Smith and Todd Rundgren. I’d also have wonderful hair.

What can a punter expect from your live show?

Pop hits, feelings and glitter.

What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?

We just released our debut LP online. It’s called Ecco Locale and you can buy it now on Bandcamp. It’s on Spotify and all that too.
