Why should everyone come and see your band?
The musos in my band are awesome. The songs are sweet. You’ll see a set full of lush and diverse tracks. We play loud versions of the softer songs. And the banter will always be sufficiently terrible.
How do you stop your pre-gig jitters?
At big shows, I need to take a really cold beer on stage with me. Like, super cold. It’s not always possible. Often the beers provided with riders aren’t cold enough to calm my nerves, so going to the bar and buying the coldest beer they’ve got is what I need to do to get on top of my game. It’s probably a bad ritual to have.
Which band would you most like to have a battle/showdown with?
The Mighty Boys. They’re so smug. I wanna kiss them.
What do you think a band has to do these days to succeed?
Punch on or make out with The Mighty Boys. That should do it.
When are you playing live/releasing your/EP?
My debut EP, Drip Dry, is out now on Bandcamp and iTunes. I’ll also be selling physical copies at my EP Launch on Saturday May 17 at The Toff. Come along! It will be sweet.
Who’s supporting you at the launch?
I’ve got some ripper supports playing with us on the night. Slow Dancer (Simon Oakley from Oh Mercy), SirJoseph (Chris Mulhall from Vance Joy) and Nearly Oratorio (Simon Lam from I’lls and Klo) are all gonna do their thing, and it will be great. Super value.
